Transcript of Daniel Culqui's Portfolio
Relationship of built form towards green space, Rome
Lewis Carroll Primary school extension
An expansion on an existing primary school at the fringe of National park Via Appia antica between the via appia green space and the growing urban population. The project is lo-cated in Italy, Rome at south of the city following a stretch of greenland park that connects the city to the landscape. The design project focuses on enhancing and creating new facil-ities for academic learning and recreation for both existing school users as well as proposed public. The proposal grew out of a series of analysis form site condition as well as site characteristics. One of the main characteristic that the project focuses is learning as there seems to be a lack of academic building that can provide spaces for study and learning for neighbouring school and educational facilities. It has an interest of rehabilitating primary school Lewis Car-roll which lies in between a hill and the city. As the main fo-cus of design project I have chosen to rehabilitate the school expanding it for additional use and future school needs. The project focuses on proposing a learning facility as a library, with additional classrooms and canteens for use of school and public. The Facilities work within a time schedule and de-pending on them they provide different. As a technology I focused on the Academic library as a fo-cus technology and main design building, the library acts as a transition from public to private facilities within the existing school Lewis Carroll to the public space. The building acts as a manmade part of hill that connects the landscape to its surrounding giving the building a smooth presence in the con-trast between city and landscape.
