LOCALIZATION

The concept of prototype x is to socially regenerate the city by creating an equilibrium and interdependence between the users. This prototype aims for the city to be completely independent from the outside world and

extremely dependent from the inside, where people’s aptitudes are enhanced to produce labor effectiveness and at the same time to labor effectiveness and at the same time to

fulfill the necessities of others.

To make this social regeneration work, punctual detonators are needed, where

values are added to existing ones creating a reaction to produce compact nodes with mixed programs that have an attached

correlation.

social regeneration

To know the location and spatial relationships between these nodes, an investigation of natural sciences such as physics, chemistry and biology was applied analyzing different behaviors resulting on an ideal urban system. After an extensive research, the chemical reaction of

effervescence was adopted because of its great advantage to iterate using the tablet form, as well because it covered the urban intentions of the

project, such as chain connection, active and static spaces.

EXPERIMENT: THE EFFERVESCENCE

The bubble’s perimeter is determined by the radial force the air creates inside it. When two bubbles with the same pressure interact with each other without joining, their limit is right in between them, just as the voronoi tessellation creates equidistant lines between the desired points.

BUBBLE-VORONOI RELATION

The main existing streets are prolonged through the inner city flowing along the voronoi path making them the primary roads.Along with the primary roads, another Along with the primary roads, another street is added that runs trough the site in a perpendicular way, working as a principal distributor along the inner-city.

Secondary streets link the main ones to the nodes, most of them being underground in order to reach the parking system below.A tram runs longitudinally along the site with stops located at strategic points between nodes, ending at the existing metro stop in “Madero” steet.

Static spaces read in the experiment turn into a green axis that flows in between the nodes articulating them to boost cycling and walking. Streets are buried at diverse sections to keep the green axis free from traffic noise and air poluttion.Color lines represent ways running along Color lines represent ways running along level zero.The rest of the voronoi network is proposed as pedestrian to promote coexistance between the users.
