Pilot Workshop
Ahead of the competition, the students of the Latina University were familiarized with the theme passages in the context of an urban project workshop in the first quarter 2015. Each of the 6 groups had to present the context, and the issues of his study site, to design a project that enable connexion between urban spaces of various identities, and finally to develop the presentation of an urban public space (street, square, park …).
The project of Carlos Gómez and Marvin Segura proposes a connector on an existing road that connects three counties in the southeast of the capital: San Francisco de Dos Rios, Curridabat and San Antonio de Desamparados. The two students have designed five strategic points of intervention with public spaces of different characteristics.
