Many thanks to grupo de trabajo de Senegal, de ASF Madrid , por haber hecho posible esto...por todo. Y al arquitecto expatriado en las fases anteriores, José Plaza , que también ha estado presente en Joal a través del recuerdo constante en la gente y del resultado de su trabajo.

A quienes leyeron el blog, muchas gracias también. Espero haberos dado una idea de lo que fue este proyecto desde el terreno, y que os sirviese un poco para entender mejor aquella realidad. Ese era el sentido de hacerlo.

Hasta la próxima!

Commercial Application In Java






1_ 01
The first interest in the construction of the proposed degree, it the idea of \u200b\u200bintervening in the city's forgotten land. Land remains abandoned to their fate-places clear of life-rules obeying its soil have been cleared to leave with the title of "green areas" in urban planning.
These green zones, which appear as a good intention, the lack of action and imagination, ends up leaving them in a state of permanent disgrace. Transformed many times in micro-dumps or just neighborhood.












1_ 02
Retrieve these sad places mean, imagine an action under budget, according to their precarious condition, possibly detonate a destination in the best-reveal your "real" dimension.
is believed then, as the first test project, planting one of these places, install agricultural land in the middle of the city, thus generating a new "urban landscape." Planting a place of wheat or sunflowers, stained an area, or just leave a fallow area.




1_ 03
was this search, which allowed to find common ground, south west of the city - near Eden populations and Independence ", which appeared to meet the requirements of this" project idea. " The site had been given on loan to the community, specifically the neighborhood council sector, who sought to build of a perimeter fence, which would allow for future installation of a multipurpose. Thus, we participated in the development of a folder given to the municipality, in October 2006 winning the contest "participatory projects" securing funding resources and project implementation. ($ 2,850,000 .-)












1_ 04
The perimeter fence proposed by the community, "Eden" is presented as an "opportunity" a certain project, the distinct possibility of recovering a land abandoned to its fate ... Some of what I was looking for.




Where To Get Waxed In Charlston



2_01
The place has been around for over 30 years forgotten. It is a land of considerable size, among populations of colorful tattered closings as fences and corroded tin sheds. A clump of trees, a street to a park in the middle, the edges are coming. Its proximity to downtown means that there is heavy traffic in terms of self and pedestrian. The traces of a permanent transit have been stamped in place, marking a cross-shaped path. In the evenings the setting sun makes a strong, crossing in its entirety, on its longest side.
is strange atmosphere here is locked, if I could forget about the traffic (and a couple of things), maybe I could find where the more I'd rather be: in the middle of nowhere.



2_02
"... one of the core problems of any context (landscape, urban or architectural) is the content. To be effective, my work must be disconnected it already contains the site. One way to add to an existing context and, therefore, to modify its content, is to analyze and assimilate specific environmental components: border, borders, buildings, trails, streets, all the features of the environment. The place is redefined but not re-presents ... "
[1] Richard Serra.











2_03
Maybe, this reading, to imagine the possibility that encloses the construction of a perimeter that, installed in the manner of the "bodies of Serra" redefine your environment, placing value on an existing landscape.
All this has reminded me of the farm buildings photographed by Bernd and Hilla Becher, something similar happens to observe their "typologies."










2_04
always been called "an exceedingly-my attention: Drinking water, silos and mills. I think what attracts me is their attitude, how they show a side of the road. Silent and absorbed giants do not seem to pursue more claims. Dumb compared to an environment that although it seems alien to its nature, also seems to have been triggered by his presence.
This willingness to "be themselves", provides a dazzling clarity in its external reading. Subject to find meaning or beauty, if you think that all his work, lies in a volume of air lock, build an inner-which is nothing more that the emptying of its forms ...
Some of this is what I'm looking for.










2_05

But ... How do you build a "silo" that aims to be the closure of a sport fields?
The issue seems to be a problem of transparency. Perhaps, what is needed is the construction of a volume is not completely opaque. Body but rather a blur, allowing content and ensure its environment. Maybe, just enough offal a landscape, as happens in some drawings and prints by David Hockney. Perhaps there is an average.











2_06
Taking into consideration the content of the site is defined an elliptical path, spread over one of the diagonals of the field, which allows registration of a sport fields (26.0 x 14.0 m.).
About this track stands a continuous closure, generated from a construction of homogeneous folds 90 degrees plus a continuous embedding of 0.6m., Which enables self-bracket of an electro-welded mesh ACMA (5.00 x 2.60m.), thus forming a thick monotonous structure. On this first closing
structural raschell installed a mesh, from 0.15m. up to 4.3m. high (top), setting a profile L that goes through all the interior points of the mesh ACMA, building a tight, continuous ring allows filtering the light, giving a certain degree of opacity.
addition to the above are built around boxes of flooring, tile-drawn lines, which together with dial access and water bowl, set the elliptical path of closure to the perimeter of the site.
Finally, a red mark on the ground that, as a path of court, delimits a field of action, defining a perimeter with a thickness of 3.00m, which announces a field, as a sign of celebration.































































2_07
All this effort, will perhaps make to this end sought by the community, a place that "expanding the public mind" as we say Smiljan Radic for the project "Court in Culiprán" find a reason:

Pattern Forkniited Paposse



3_01
"... Building a place of collective use less and less seems to be endlessly redesigned seats, poles, sinks or floors. This would have consumed large possibilities. Build it means expanding the public imagination, drawing and often only blur an image around which different memories meet, intersect, without even attending the event ... "
[2] Smiljan Radic.
interesting thing about this reading is that you can imagine, a chance to build on these uninhabited places, and not a place of collective use "equipped with furniture," as it is customary to see in parks and squares, but rather a landscape, to "expand the public mind", giving new meaning and destiny.











3_02
Finally, this intervention "without grass in a green area", but with a pair of tights and a constructive logic elementary, plus a few boxes of floor tiles in the main square of Talca, will extend a simplified imaginary stories, or as we say the architect Germain del Sol, in the Project-Dynamics:

"... an architecture get what you need as a gift, without missing what is missing, but rather, finding the problems the opportunity to bring covert ... " [3] Germain del Sol

School Rejection Reconsideration Format

CONFERENCE ON WOMEN'S RIGHTS MARCH 8

On Saturday March 17 the Dynamique Femme (www.geocities.com / dynfemme) or rganizers in FUENLABRADA Social Center, a conference on RIGHTS OF WOMEN , given by Mme. Amsatou Sow Sidibe, a lecturer in the Faculty of Law at the University of Dakar, Director of the Institute of Human Rights and Peace (UCAD) President of the Association of Women Lawyers of Senegal and the African Network of women workers (Rafet). future
used the community room of the center, under construction and not yet finished, doors, windows and electrical installation, the space fell short of the circumstances. In addition, s
and placed chairs and speakers outside, so that all people who came to the event could participate.


The speaker presented the topic for about an hour, maintaining the public's attention, and then opened the floor for questions and comments that lasted until dusk.

The event was in Wolof, as the only language of many of the attendees (the French learned in school), except the welcome and closing of the president the Dynamique Femme, ending his voice cracking with emotion, and the coordinator of ASF, in French.

this consideration was the municipality of Fuenlabrada, twinned with that of Joal-Fadiouth and financier of the project from the beginning of it, in 2000, and the president of the Femme Dynamique took the opportunity to express their appreciation to Ayuntamiento de Fuenlabrada and Architects Without Borders, on behalf of the Movement Dyn.Femme. S
and referred to women working in the construction of the second phase of the Social Centre, at the request of the president came out to greet, to applause from the entire audience.

was a day very important for the Dynamique Femme, with many touching moments, and served as a pre-inauguration of the community room, hopefully the first of many similar acts, and that the SOCIAL CENTRE FUENLABRADA become the Women's House Joal-Fadiouth, and a benchmark for the entire community.
