my blogging experience

In general, I do not like writing, either in Spanish or in English, because it makes it difficult to put into words what I am thinking or feeling, and target for the blog is exactly that. Writing a blog is not easy, but it made me think about different issues and my opinion about them. It was a good experience, which somehow helped me to think better about my career, what I would like to do after finishing it, details that I had not questioned at any other time, but I had only thought about the moment. My writing ability I think I improve a little, I do not know, I learned more words and I have noticed better how to occupy the tenses. In the future, perhaps I would like to include more in-depth opinions on certain topics that I consider relevant, and in this way generate a constructive discussion. I believe that the conversation with other people is important, because it is possible to create another point of view on the subject, it is a conversation or discussion based on differe...

make model

Imagen
I've always liked making models. When I was a little girl I played with different materials and to figures, houses to the dolls and the cats, I created clothes, cars or different accessories. I think in this case it is difficult to separate talk about something that is not related to my professional career, because my taste for making models was one of the reasons why I chose it. It is interesting because it is one of the ways through which it can be created. It allows to model in 3D what one wants to do, to experiment with the form and to test its operation. I think it's one of the best ways I have to show what's in my mind. Through the years, thanks to the experimentation I have had, I now manage to carry out in a good way what I propose, and I also enjoy and enjoy doing it.

A subject I enjoy

A subject I enjoy is geometry. Although this subject I had the first semester of last year. Until today I continue applying it in the plans that I do in workshop and structures. In the classes we drew the exercises with squares, rules and compass. We study the systems of perspectives, isometric translations of figures, projections of geometric bodies in the planes and their different views, as well as the intersection of these with other geometric bodies I like this subject  because it can be applied in the plans that we make in a workshop or in structures. Besides, it relaxes me and entertains doing those kinds of activities. Last year, for the tests my way of studying was explaining to my classmates how to do the exercises, I really liked it, and this year I dedicated myself to explain to friends who are in first year on this subject. I believe that this subject is very important for students who are just entering because it allows developing the ability to transfer 3D mo...

Someone I admire in my field: Luis Barragan

Imagen
He was a mexican arquitect, only winner of Pritzker prize in tris country. He was born in 1902 and death in 1988. It have identity to the modern arquitecture of Mexico though the use of colour, remembering to the traditional culture of the country. Some of this works are "Casa Barragán", "Casa Girardi", "Capilla de las Capuchinas", among other. I admire it because it manages to perfectly blend the strong colors as red and yellow, the serenity of the gardens and the figures in the base of large volumes, creating an incomparable harmony. In opposition to the idea of the modern architecture, he modified it so that it adapted to the place, its inhabitants and its history. I believe that this is one of its true legacies, to demonstrate that architecture does not have to be solely functional, but it can also be a demonstration of beauty and identity, which have an objective of meditation and being in company. His works I like because they show how proud he...

A Post-Graduate Course I might do

I have not yet finished my career, but I have always been interested in sustainability. The world is being destroyed by the human being and we are becoming an uninhabitable place. I think that as architecture it is about the way of inhabiting the human being, it must take into account the sustainable construction of it, in order to be able to improve the quality of life not only of the human being but also of the animals and the animal ecosystem. That is why I would like to take a postgraduate course on sustainable architecture, to be able to study in more detail the different variables of a construction so that it can minimize the energy expenditure and at the same time preserve the necessary habitability parameters and the desired spatial design. I would like to study it with face-to-face classes in one of the cities that today are an example to follow in the measures they have taken to achieve a better quality of life for all inhabitants through sustainability, such as Copenhagen,...

my dream job

Since I was little, I liked crafts. This is a reason because I am student of arquitecture. Back then, I can not talk about my dream job. But, after I was interested in the thread and metal craft, specially jewels. In high school. I was studied gold work. Y have always dreamed of a job that would allow me to travel. I know people who with crafts have managed to fulfill this dream, because with this profession you can meet many people who have the same tastes and who usually help each other. All yhat is needed is enthusiasm and love for the work we do with our own hands, and with practice and consentration can reach great achievements. What is needed to study for this work is the technique of each type of discipline, which can be learned from some craftsman or in some academy, and then learn the rest through experimentation, as I have been doing since I am small. The architecture, which is what I am studying now, I think has a lot of relation with the crafts. Allows to travel, the...

my profession is special

I will be an achitect, but I am very sure that will not work in arquitecture all my life because I would like to explorer other disciplines  also are related to arquitecture. The arquitecture is a discipline that allows to dedicate itself to many areas of investigation, also allows to develop several competences that can be applied to other activities like desingn of other type of things, that is not buildings or houses. For example I would like to dedicate myself to creating silver jewelry, rather as recreation, but I feel that my future profession allows me to do so. What I like most about my proffession is the ability to see everything that surrounds us from another point of view. The trips I have and all the journeys I do every day I enjoy in a different way than Y did before.
