En breve aparecerá la versión en español y algunos dibujos complementarios, plantas esquemáticas y secciones. Estamos en pleno desarrollo del proyecto para comenzar la construcción hacia mediados de Septiembre 2011. Aún habrá modificaciones y mejoras al proyecto.

100 VERTICAL PARKING GREEN BLOCKS IN MEXICO CITY...!
NATURADOS are more than car parking buildings, NATURADOS is SOCIAL PHYSICAL SPACE wrapped inside vertical gardens. These new urban components integrate in single architectural structures different activities of urban life. Based on the need for car parking space, a new architectural "gender" that offers mixed use space for citizens and vertical gardens for the city...
Mexico City –arround 18 million people and several million cars- does not have a “public” car parking system. NATURADOS is established on top of an existing already functional network owned by COPEMSA. Present facilities are just empty lots where cars are parked on poorly paved street level surface. As the city desperateley requires a great number of parking spaces people is forced to use these basic facilities. The idea is to to insert a new type of urban component that retains the present use mixed with a range of complementary spaces. These structures contain retail space and services plus different sorts of community facilities assambled into these green modular blocks. NATURADOS are multilevel buildings wrapped with vegetation. Different scale new generation SOCIAL PHYSICAL SPACES based in the need for car parking will become dynamic spots for city life. This strategy ensures both, realism and use of multiple proven locations within the city structure. According to preliminary estimates the number of car spots will be MULTIPLIED BY SIX. COPEMSA holds arround 70,000 car spots in 100 different sites. Projection is 420,000 car spots plus complementary spaces in SAME 100 sites. NATURADOS is a radical realistic upgrade operation that goes far beyond the basic original requirements. NATURADOS ARE MUCH MORE THAN CAR PARKING BUILDINGS...
Still in early stages, a major improvement is being developed: COPEMSA has planned to bring electric vehicles (cars) into the mexican market. This would mean NATURADOS may include re-charging facilities...
G55_NATURADOS_01 is the first application as a REAL BUILDING of the NATURADOS concept. The CONCEPTUAL design has been released as a DESCRIPTIVE and ABSTRACT proposal contained in http://www.arkitektstudio.com.mx/iScroller_NATURADOS/NATURADOS.html . The actual architectural characteristics of each green block –shape, height and layout- depends on the context and the zoning. Complementary uses of each piece are defined according to location and comprehensive analysis of social and economic characteristic of the neighborhood. Nevertheless, all cases contain the basic FEATURES of NATURADOS: first one to three levels for spaces such as retail, free acces internet cafes, recollection of recyclable materials, etc. A number of storeys for car parking, and one or two top levels for community "green space” activities such as roof farming, sports centers, assamby space, gyms. and swimming pools, etc.
Mexican style parking. Inefficient surface parking scattered through the urban fabric.

Below this panels, the "dish" is leveled to drain water down to the basement tanks while panels remain strictly horizontal.

NATURADOS_GREEN VERTICAL PARKING
[NATURADOS]... IS A GREEN VERTICAL PARKING SYSTEM COMBINED WITH COMMUNITY SERVICES AND RETAIL. THESE LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT MODULES WOULD PROVIDE THE CITY WITH INTEGRATED SPACE FOR PARKING AND COMMUNITY SERVICES IN NEW GENERATION ECO-FRIENDLY STRUCTURES. THE VERTICAL GARDENS ARE LOW COST MODULAR STEEL STRUCTURES 8 TO 12 STOREYS HIGH: FIRST 2 OR 3 LEVELS ARE USED AS RETAIL SPACE AND SERVICES, TOP 2 OR 3 FLOORS ACCOMMODATE COMMUNITY MULTI-PURPOSE SPACES. ENERGY GENERATED THROUGH PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS AND WIND TURBINES MAKES LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT VIABLE.

AWARD! "THE METEORITE. a laying skyscraper..."
ARKITEKTSTUDIO LUISVICENTE_FLORES releases a recently awarded project submitted to "MINE THE GAP", a single stage design ideas international competition dedicated to examining one of the most visible scars left after the collapse of the real estate market in Chicago.
THE METEORITE is an artainmet center for Chicago that landmarks and re-uses the gap left by a financially unsuccessful project for a condominium tower.THE METEORITE is a sustainable building that produces energy through wind turbines (by Philippe Starck) and extensive solar panels. Indoor area is approximately 288 thousand Sq.Ft. plus a 120 thousand Sq.Ft. covered plaza.
..................................
ARKITEKTSTUDIO LUISVICENTE_FLORES presenta un proyecto recientemente premiado en "MINE THE GAP", concurso internacional de ideas dedicado a examinar una de las cicatrices mas visibles del colapso del mercado de bienes inmuebles en Chicago. EL METEORITO es un centro para las artes no convencionales que reutiliza el hueco urbano que deja el proyecto de una torre residencial cancelado por inviabilidad financiera.
EL METEORITO es un edificio sustentable que produce energía mediante turbinas eólicas y una extensa superficie de celdas fotovoltaicas. [21 generadores eólicos diseñados por Philippe Starck].

DALLAS / NET ZERO RESIDENTIAL BLOCK
An experimental exploration of most common themes in urban architecture will lead to create relevant architectural prototype models. These conceptions integrate, within the architectural structure, aspects such as construction systems, material and technological devices to produce sustainable prototypes.
