MODULE
Location / Parque Fundidora, MonterreyN.L., Mexico
Client / Foro Universal de las Culturas Designin collaboration with No.Mad Arq
Ā In September 2007 Monterrey hosted a universal cultureforum. That summer I worked at a local firm, No.Mad Arquitectura, where Ideveloped a design to compete for the commission of the information modules forthe park where most of the events would be hosted.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā The modules wouldbe placed on open areas and should include gift shop, first aid and ticketsales. My boss, Felipe NuƱes, thought it might be something circular with amembrane awning.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Starting from thecircular plan I decided to section it like a pie and separate the pieces,creating a nucleus which could be uniqueto each module to tell them apart, each representing a different concept of the forum. The formthen branched out from the center divided in three sections that contained thedifferent functions.
