Final+Project

 Valdrada is a city constructed on the shores of a lake. There’s not distance between the beginning of the city and the lake because in Valdrada there are two cities. Those cities are Valdrada and the mirror of Valdrada. One city is erected after the lake and the other city are the reflection on the lake. So, there’s nothing in one Valdrada that the other Valdrada doesn’t repeat. The urban morphology consists in a little town connected to an island by a principal avenue and two bridges. That avenue is pedestrian and vehicular and begins in the door of the city. Otherwise, that road connects the principal squares. The bridges connect the complex of home galleries of the island with the rest of the city and they are only pedestrian. So, they form a public walking that begins and finishes in the two extremes of the town. The public spaces of Valdrada are the squares identified in the model and plans and the spaces of galleries. On the other hand, the blocks proposed are principally regular and the measures are 110 x 50 meters, except the complex of buildings that works like the limits of the city. The height proposed for the buildings are 15, 30 and 45 meters. The materials proposed for the façades of the buildings are iron & steel and glass to remark the mirrors and reflects in the city. Finally, it’s important to say that the city are inspirited and adapted to the lake. Its structure, context, needs and materials are related to the lake. So, all the elements of the city work in function of the lake. Everything in the first city is reflected in the second city.
