ACADEMIC PORTFOLIO

I am Raúl, an architecture student at UPC. I like

math, art, music and history, but what I love most
“God is in the details”
is designing and modeling buildings and ships Mies Van Der Rohe
with LEGO bricks. It is for this reason and for my
creativity and innovation that I wish to develop as

an architect. CV INDEX

In this model I integrated the structure and space to take
advantage of architectural resources and delimit spaces, paths and
entrances within a balanced structure with 3 support points on the
ground. It was worked with wooden rods, copper wire and metal
mesh.

Model of route and spaces

The concept of this project is based on a route
that goes from the deep, dark and closed part of
the earth to an elevated, open and illuminated
viewing point. It takes you from darkness to light,
from closed to open. Using corrugated cardboard,
balsa wood, skewers and corks, in the first phase I
defined the route and the spaces.
