In collaboration with UDEM (Universidad de Monterrey), the atelier explores the growth and diffusion of industrial parks in Mexico with the aim of developing hybrid settlement typologies where new infrastructural systems act as catalysts for social life, collective well-being and nature protection, thus redefining the production/logistics unit as a basis through which to promote new forms of urban development. To do this, students are required to produce an urban design strategy for an industrial park located in a suburban area of Monterrey and to provide an architectural intervention consistent with the urban design strategy. Distribution, tectonics, and architectural tonality are the focus of the architectural design for establishing a new relationship with the existing built environment, while the focus of urban design is on the investigation and representation of complex urban systems on multiple scales of development, and on the reshaping of environmental systems emphasizing their role in organizing a collective landscape.
