et in arcadia ego

topographic appropriation

Alzuza, Spain

PROJECT IN COLLABORATION WITH ENDIKA GARCÍA, ALVARO MENDICUTE AND LORENA SOTO

This urban planning exercise focuses on the town of Alzuza in Navarra. Having previously carried out a housing project from a cube measuring 12 mx 12 mx 12 m, it is proposed to carry out an urbanization with its due endowments (a fronton, a school, a society and some apartments).

When working in a special topographic situation, he proposed to work with it through retaining walls that follow the contour lines so that the jumps were not so abrupt. On the other hand, it was essential in our project to take into account the privacy of new users of the community, which is why the game of unevenness worked in our favor.
