“Esa luz de la cual partimos, la hemos -nosotros mismos- traicionado muchas veces, porque en el vaivén del trabajo
uno se traiciona y se rescata constantemente: es una ilusión, por no decir una mentira creer que se puede
trabajar de otro modo, yo diría vivir de otro modo. Uno vive constantemente traicionándose y constantemente
rescatándose”Godofredo Iommi
“That light from which we start, we have -ourselves- betrayed many times, because in the swing of work one
constantly betrays and rescues oneself: It’s an illusion, if not a lie to believe that you can work otherwise, I would say, to live otherwise. One lives constantly
betraying and constantly rescuing oneself”
This portfolio presents some of my ideas and works. As Architect and also Artist I understand the reality establishing a complementary relation between both disciplines, between reason and intuition.

Architecture office located in Island of Chiloé.The Architecture raises from the local identity, where Culture means Nature.The rural context, their relationship with the sea, the directness geography and the wheater are the most important things before Architecture.
During my time in the office I developed entirely the projects, 3 of wich are presented in this portfolio;
-Koñimó House-Quemchi House-Hueiwe Fireplace

Chiloé rural housing is made up separate volumes, becoming aware of the farming activity of its inhabitants. The project reinterprets this idea.Three volumes will host the activities of a home, gathered and connected by a gallery that runs trought the whole house.The Koñimó House is in the highest point of peninsula. Each volume is broken, establishing differents relations with the enviroment, sometimes close sometimes distant.

Quemchi House
Chiloé, 2014.
Construction starts Nov.2015
A chilote shed. Metalic, exposed to the weather and the inexorable passage of time, hermetic, opaque and corroded is taken as a reference to start the tour of the building.
The interior is completely opposite, open to sea, tall and full of light. It gives way to the warmth of wood and the plasctic composition where the structure and crystals exhibited predominates.

Hueiwe Fireplace
Chiloé, 2015.
Construction alredy start
The project is located at the center of a family allotment. The client always thought building a family meeting place, where all who live there could meet to talk, eat and enjoy. So, will be proposed occupy the fire -as did the natives- like hierarchical center. Then the fire will provide heat to the entire volume without expensive technics.

The volume is separated from the ground, allowing transit through swampy terrain. When accesing faces the fire, around wich the two main activities are diveded: staying and eating.
Services area are solved abroad, located middle floor under the mirador. The idea is to give a covered outside to facilitate living and meeting in the exterior. Organization
When you enter, the fire is thought to impress and gather. Around it, will be numerous benches and sitting places.
The Mirador (a place to look) and the covered terrace are two intermediate places between outside and inside. Those are sheltered from the rain and at the same time connected with nature.

DONDEQUIERA / WHEREVERLa Naturaleza Convertida en Programación Televisiva
The Nature converted in Television Programming
Todos las imágenes que guardo están mediadas por distintos aparatos tecnológicos que son una nueva forma de acercar al ser humano a la naturaleza. En los documentales se simula una realidad, por lo tanto, se sugiere que se podría prescindir de la experiencia física para ver imágenes impresionantes de aquello que es distante y desconocido. El hecho de querer acercarse y conocer tanto del medio ambiente, ha reemplazado a la experiencia directa.
La naturaleza “no puede aceptarse como un hecho natural” (Baudrillard. La Ilusión y Desilución Estéticas 2001, p.254). Todo el mecanismo de simulación tiene su origen en la gran cantidad de información, se nos sitúa con distancia, exteriormente, ajenos a la realidad del planeta.
La naturaleza convertida en programación televisiva trata de la estilización del territorio. El embellecimiento visual, el asombro que produce nos aleja de la idea de paisaje tradicional, ya que jamás veremos un paisaje viéndolo cómo los estamos viendo. Entonces, la confusión para definir paisaje en términos actuales radica en que la “interiorización” no existe. Esto se debe tanto a los medios con que consumimos la naturaleza, como a la escasez de parajes absolutamente naturales. Dentro de esta idea, la vida silvestre sufre las mismas modificaciones que el concepto de paisaje, por lo que se propone abordarlos conjuntamente.
El despliegue técnico de la actualidad, trasladado a los paisajes y los animales, reafirma la idea de que somos espectadores del medio ambiente, observadores sin mirada con incansable sed de conocimiento. Todo lo que sabemos de nuestro entorno es “un índice de nuestro poder, y, por consiguiente, un índice de lo que nos separa” (p.20).
Los mecanismo culturales también han modificado el concepto de viaje, aunque éste es el medio más natural de la actual relación del hombre con la naturaleza: El Placer de Desplazamiento. Mantendremos el placer de viajar, por lo menos hasta que la simulación de la exterioridad y la distancia entre lugares acaben con nuestras expectativas de encontrar lo que quede de naturaleza.
A fin de cuentas, las pinturas acá presentadas se basan en la distancia física con que veo la naturaleza. La relación del hombre con la naturaleza seguramente va a seguir siendo modificada, haciendo que lo más atractivo sea pensar en que la naturaleza seguirá produciendo asombro y jamás podrá ser reemplazada por creaciones humanas. La pintura como medio técnico, manual y rudimentario, aparece como la relentización de todas estas ideas.

Square Tribute to Geography of Santiago
Providencia, Santiago, January 2015.
Competition, ARAR Group
What is proposed is assume the commisioning of renovating the Plaza with a clear and radical proposal that can at the same time, be a presence and strenghthen the pre-existing. The desired quality of the project as an element of urban connection is made from two operations. First, the homogenization of the surface through material continuity and their levels by creating a continuous topography unifying the square whit immediate surroundings. Second, connecting the park with another park with an overpass that crosse the Avenue.

The concept Community is understood as the power of recognize: The place inhabits, their persons, their values. The monument is a place for understanding the city of Santiago.
The monument consists in a device orientation and learning, linking and identifying the key mountain tops of the basin of Santiago, while in the interior reflects to people.

Sports Park VxA
Villa Alemana, V Región de Valparaíso. July 2014.
The commission was to design a sports park in the city of Villa Alemana, in a waste ground characterized by its changing topography.In response, it was decided to follow process that seeks understand this territory, trough the creation of models based on plasticine. This ways, the formal development ocurred at the same time we understood the laws of the pre-existing, being the result an articulation of both variables. Finally, the architectural elements are walls with attached programs.

Flexible Units
Estación Central, Santiago, 2013.
Located in a working class neighborhood the project occupies a deteriorated and underused city block. Their position in the city and its role in the neigborhood is crucial to understand what should be done: It’s about to reconcile two parts, about <build a Full> in front of an empty. To deal with an entire block city was designed several types of housing (units), with the aim of diversifying (flexible) the type of habitants and the volume building itself.
