Part 2 Project 2016

The architectural intervention sets to positively embrace the future speculation of Madrid by generating a socially and resourcefully resilient inner-city neighbourhood. Intervening on predicted water shortages the proposal sets to reinstate Madrid’s ancient and abandoned underground waterways: ‘the Viajes de Agua’. The Viajes provide a water source for the Basilica to utilise and enables water to be used as a historic means of uniting unfamiliar communities within a public realm.
