In the heart of Guadalajara, the Analco neighborhood is a vibrant tapestry ofhistory and culture. Its colorful streets, lively public spaces, and historic buildingspaint a vivid picture of a community that has grown and evolved over time.Walking through Analco, one can sense the rich heritage and the dynamic spiritof its residents.Despite its many charms, Analco faces several challenges. There's an urgentneed for more intuitive mobility solutions to make it easier for residents andvisitors to navigate the neighborhood. Current mobility patterns can beconfusing and inefficient, hindering the flow of daily life. Additionally, thecommunity requires versatile amenities that can cater to its diverse population,from young families and working professionals to elderly residents and visitors.Housing is another critical issue in Analco. The neighborhood needs adaptablehousing options that can meet the changing needs and opportunities of itsresidents. This includes affordable housing for young professionals, familyhomes, and senior living options. Flexible and innovative housing solutions areessential to ensure that Analco can accommodate its growing population whilepreserving its unique character.To address these challenges, we have structured our intervention proposalaround five main pillars. These pillars will guide our efforts to improve mobility,enhance amenities, and create adaptable housing solutions. By focusing onthese key areas, we aim to support the continued growth and vibrancy of theAnalco neighborhood, ensuring it remains a thriving and dynamic community forgenerations to come.ARPAFIL ArpaFil International Competitionsfor Young ArchitectsFinalist - Top 25Collective Housing 2023 - María Fernanda SánchezTerraces WaterfallIn collaboration with:Pablo Gómez Ana Sofía GutierrezJosé Luis MendizábalMaría Fernanda Sánchez López Architecture Portfolio 202401Softwares Used:Autocad Autodesk, RevitAutodesk, Photoshop I, llustrator, Qgis, V-rayMentors:Arq.

Fexibility over program The project implements versatile spaces through the Mat-Building concept, which uses 3.3 x 3.3-meter modulesdesigned for flexibility and repetition. These modules createadaptable, interconnected spaces that can easily respondto the evolving needs of users. By integrating harmoniouslywith their surroundings, the design allows residents of Analcoto modify and personalize their living spaces as desired,ensuring both functionality and comfort.Habitable ModulesThe development includes adaptable private, social, andhabitable modules throughout the complex. Private modulesoffer residents personal, quiet spaces for rest and reflection,ensuring comfort and privacy. Social modules fostercommunity interaction, with flexible spaces like sharedgardens and communal lounges that can be reconfiguredfor various activities. The design balances personal andcommunal spaces, allowing both to evolve with theresidents' needs, creating a dynamic and cohesive livingenvironment.

Softwares Used:Revit Autodesk, Photoshop,Sketchup, Illustrator, QGIS, Rhino, LumionAt the end of the 20th century and beginning of the 21st century, Monterrey facedchallenges in terms of urban development, infrastructure, and quality of life. Inresponse to these challenges, several urban revitalization projects were implemented,including Paseo Santa Lucía. This has become an important meeting point forresidents and visitors of Monterrey. It is a place where people can enjoy outdooractivities, such as boating, hiking, cycling, cultural and artistic events. The revitalizationof the Santa Lucía River area has contributed to improving environmental quality andbiodiversity in the region, which has turned it into an urban oasis that contrasts withthe surrounding urban environment. Despite revitalization efforts, socioeconomic disparities have persisted indemographics near the area, with some areas facing challenges such as poverty,unemployment or lack of access to basic services. Wastewater discharges, industrialdischarges, urban pollutants and the accumulation of garbage have represented agreat challenge for the promenade's environment, causing a risk to wildlife and publichealth.Arquine Competition No.26 |MEXTRÓPOLI Pavilion 2024 inMexico City - María FernandaSánchezArchitecture Portfolio 202415In collaboration with:Karla TorresJorge MarquezRamón Llanos María Fernanda Sánchez Mentors:Arq.

Just as in the original block, this pavilion invites us to reflect on thetransformative power of architecture. It is not only a physical structure, buta symbol of inclusion; each space is designed to promote coexistenceand well-being of its users. Over the years, housing complexes have takena direction that does not benefit their residents, leaving aside aparticipatory architecture that we can all benefit from.34Softwares Used:Revit AutodeskPhotoshop IllustratorQGISLumionIn collaboration with:Ana Sofía GutierrezPablo GómezGerardo RodríguezMaría Fernanda SánchezLópez Mentors:Arq.

As we contemplate this representation, we envision a futurewhere architecture is not only functional and aesthetic, but alsomeaningful and transformative. It is a reminder that every building orspace has the capacity to be a positive force in our society. This goal willbe achieved with the collaboration of architects willing to learn aboutthose who have the right to inhabit the space they are designing. This iswhy the community is invited to show their ways of living.

ARCHITECTURAL DICHOTOMY MATERIALITY GEOMETRYIn crafting the architectural narrative of my pavilion, I drawprofound inspiration from the seminal work of Mario Pani,particularly his emblematic creation, the collective complex"CUPA."Within this homage lies a deliberate exploration of architecturaldichotomy, where form intertwines with function to evoke apoignant statement on the fundamental human right to shelter.Mirroring the iconic silhouette of Pani's masterpiece, our pavilionstands as a testament to the enduring significance of communalliving spaces.SENSORY EXPERIENCEVISUAL TACTILEINTERIOR EXPERIENCECONTENT36 Architecture Portfolio 2024This pavillion is created to promote the art from the city and invitepeople to share a picture of how Mexican people live in the city.Because we all have the right to live.This pavillion is created to promote the art from the city and invitepeople to share a picture of how Mexican people live in the city.Because we all have the right to live.
