Final Degree Project
Centre for Scenic Arts at Lisbon’s Mayer Park
Rooftop Garden and surroundings
Section B
The Project site has an exceptional centric location in Lisbon. Limited inside a huge housing block that hosts as well the Botanic gardens, that border with this his-torical theatre site.The aim of the project, volumetrically and contextually, is to open up the site through the housing block and relate it with the surroundings, creating at the same time a rooftop urban garden. The Center for Scenic Arts has all the related programmatic spaces underneath a succession of “green” roofs at different levels, creating paths to connect both block sides. This way the fifth façade provides a main urban location for citizens and users in a public space related with the Botanic gardens, allowing all kinds of scenic activity.Three pyramidal-shaped theaters are scattered over the site marking this main program spaces and providing volumetric referral shapes to the ensemble.

Sancti Petri’s peninsula general plan proposal
Sancti Petri is a small peninsula south of Cadiz bay, located between the ocean and the marsh-lands. Land apears and desapears with tides, so erosion is a main partic-ipant in the definition of the site. The proyect assembles different pro-grams and uses that conctept to relate itself to the earth with organ-ic shapes. Wind, sea and human use define the erosion parameter that defines the construction density in the peninsula.

Located in 19th arrondisement in Paris, this nursery school, is crusted in a small site, surrounded in an area of quite big and high buildings. Due to the security and specific program that requires this kind of schools, the building embraces with its two arms the interior space and gardens. Each age range group is distributed in different floors regarding the movility capacities each of them have. The void spaces relate fluent-ly from one floor to the other, separating at the same time the spaces asigned to diferent age ranges and programs. Each range needs a dormitory, a game area, changing area or bath-room and dining room or nursery. The administration and tea-chears space are located on the access floor to allow more control on the people entrance.

Collective Housing developmentRiver surroundings. Madrid
Located on the Manzanare´s river bank, the site has a privileged condition to integrate the river, green areas and the city for the citizens. The main aim on this proyect was to create a dwelling system where each house may have a small garden despite the location of each. This concept produces an open and porous contructive system. The height difference between street and gardens level, allows a combination of a lower housing system, that doesn’t interrupt street views; and a higher block system, oriented perpendicular to the river and the main street, in such a way that it directs at the same time those views and relations.

Habitat Design in Rapidlychanging contextsInternational Workshop.
The present time population of Sanand is around 33.000 people, but with the new TATA Nano factory, that will be situated 8km to the west of the city, it’s expected a growth up to a 60%. As Sanand has a satellite situation in the west of Ahmadabad, the main developments is taking place in this east direction of the town, along the highway, where the proposed site is located.One of the main targets for the design is the maintenance of the natural rhythms of flowing water and agricultural fields. In this sense, the central axis for the project is a green pedestrian path that goes through the site, south to north, connecting highway and lake, creating a gradient of activity speed, leaving the intensity of the market, south, near the main streets and quieter spaces and activities, north near the lake.

Thermal conditioning and energy storage system for technical floors. Patent P201031173
Thermal conditioning and energy storage system for technical floors, that has at least one quadrangular base sheet (1) located under the technical floor (7) of a building, were exists air flow. On this base sheet (1) multiple number of hermetic metal cans will be disposed, contain-ing each of them phase change materials, based on paraffins, which store heat when the material changes from solid to liquid phase and releasing that same heat when it goes back from liquid to solid phase. This way the energy from natural heat and cold cycles can be used as passive thermal conditioning and minimize energy consumption from active air conditioning systems.

Javier Maroto Ramos PhD Architect and Teacher Dept. of Architectural projects Superior Technical School of Architecture Polytechnic University of Madrid Telephone: +34 686927418 Email: jmar@solid‐arq.com To Whom It May Concern: I am hereby glad to provide a written reference for Ms. Carmen Montejo Puig de la Bellacasa in support of her candidacy for any future endeavours as an architect. I am currently a PhD Architect at the School of Architecture of the Polytechnic University of Madrid (ETSAM) where I have been teaching since 1989. I co‐founded Solid Architecture firm and Maremoto Landscape company where we look for partnership among architecture, city and territory. We have projected cultural buildings, sports facilities, offices, private and social housing and the rehabilitation of various buildings to suit new functions. We obtained several Awards of Architecture and Urbanism of Madrid, the Architecture Prize of the Madrid Association of Architects and the FAD prize of design, alongside with more than 50 awards at national and international competitions. I have been Carmen’s tutor in her final architectural project at the Escuela Técnica
Superior de Arquitectura de Madrid. As her supervisor, I have been able to ascertain the quality of her work and her qualifications to undertake extremely complex projects. Her final project consisted of a Centre for Scenic Arts located in Lisbon, Portugal. She resolved the issues imposed by the site of the project and its surroundings (an enclosed area next to the Botanical garden circled by a residential area and historical theatrical relevance) in an intelligent fashion by extending the garden through the rooftops of the centre, creating a fluent public itinerary connecting all site levels. She managed to solve all scale approaches with great effort and success, showing thoroughness and care in her work. Carmen is a very talented and resourceful architect as well as a personable and trustful individual, demonstrating perseverance and pride in her work. She is a hard worker, open‐minded and curious, proven by her record at the ETSAM and her involvement in research and other academic activities organized by the university. Within the framework of her studies at the ETSAM, she has pursued studies abroad in France and in India where she was able to explore other areas and courses. Carmen has demonstrated in her studies an unconditional commitment to her work and a profound interest in architecture and design. She is a good decision‐maker and she is keen on developing new ideas no matter how difficult
they may be. Carmen has an interest and sensitivity for architectural integration and she has stood out among other students for the insertion of her designs in their specific location. Carmen is also a natural team player and a team leader. She has always shared and promoted the sharing of information with colleagues, taking leadership in times of difficulty and volunteering to help other colleagues by facilitating the communication and managing the blog for the tutorials group where information and work of each student could be shared. I believe that Carmen will have a bright career ahead in the world of architecture and whenever it might be needed I would be pleased to answer any further questions about it. Yours sincerely, Javier Maroto Ramos PhD Architecture Tenant Professor UPM ETSAM www.solidarquitectura.com

To Whom It May Concern: I am very pleased to provide a reference for Mss. Carmen Montejo Puig de la Bellacasa, in support of any future candidatures or endeavours as an architect. I am currently Professor at the Department of Architectural and Construction Technology (DCTA) at the Superior Technical School of Architecture. PhD Architect since 1985, architect specialized in Urbanism and Building construction by the Technical University of Madrid, where I teach since 1979 and I am principal Teacher since 1987. I have participated in the Commission of Technologic Affairs of the Professional Architects Association of Madrid and I represent the Spanish National Council of Professional Architects Associations in several technical committees. I have carried out duties as Vice director and Secretary of the DCTA during different laps of time and I am currently Secretary of the “Master of Environmental and Bioclimatic Architecture” since 2001. Apart from teaching and lectures in
and out of Spain I have a long career as researcher, among others at ABIO research group (Bioclimatic Architecture in a sustainable environment). I have supervised several PhD Thesis. I have been coordinator and main researcher in different projects, developing patents, lectures and research papers for national and international reviews. Carmen was my pupil in 2004 during the Environmental Comfort techniques and Equipment courses. In 2008 she enrolled at ABIO research group as a research student. During the three years she worked in the group I had the opportunity to collaborate with her in several projects, participating directly or indirectly. At the INVISO project (Scientific and Technical Singular Project with Strategic purposes financed by the Science and Innovation Ministry) she was assigned to the Energy Storage research branch, specifically in the development of construction systems incorporating Phase Change Materials (PCM). Carmen and her direct supervisor presented some of the projects developed at different national and international Conferences, with very positive results. One of the projects ended on the registry of the Patent “Thermal conditioning and energy storage system for technical floors” (Ref P201031173), of which I am co-author. As a researcher, Carmen took part representing our group at the Spanish Thematic Network of PCM. As a member of the ABIO group she participated too in the development and monitoring of the project of the Local Energy Agency of Rivas-Vaciamadrid, through site visits and technical solutions research.
As a researcher, Carmen showed herself as a resourceful person, hard worker, proactive and resolute. As a proof of her commitment with the group and organization abilities she assumed internal managing tasks of ABIO group. She supported too with collaboration initiatives and helped in parallel projects with translations and all kinds of organization and administrative tasks, necessary for the group functioning. Carmen has always demonstrated to be a trustworthy professional that accomplishes her work with exceptional motivation. She has great capacity to learn and research in depth with accuracy. It is worth pointing out her skills to work individually as in groups, as well as her availability and commitment with her colleagues. I consider that Carmen would be a great addition in any organization. Her academic and research performance are a proof of it. I will be pleased to answer any additional questions you may have. Yours Sincerely,
César Bedoya Frutos University Professor
