    Lane for non-humans

    Lane for non-humans. An artistic, ecological and educational project for biodiversity in urban space

    Spain
    The project encouraged students of a public secondary school of Barcelona to discover urban biodiversity in their school environment, to vindicate their lives and to negotiate with politicians for an urban intervention that yielded space for spontaneous forms of lives. As a result, part of the street was transformed in a vegetable lane for butterflies, bumblebees, ladybugs and other arthropods. This intervention is both a permanent artwork in the public space and an urban refuge for pollinators.

In my current city, Constanta, which is located on the Black Sea coast, in the last twenty years it has been built excessively, the economic interest prevailing due to the benefits brought by these hotels or apartments rented during the summer season.

    Design for an architectural rug (2022)

    Utilizing the weaving process as inspiration to reconnect the built environment, nature and people.

    Germany
    My proposal is a kiosk made out of reused plattenbau panels whose form is inspired by the weaving process of Annie Albers. The design aims to interlace the natural landscape with the built environment until they are both speaking the same language in an almost rhythmic composition mimicking the weaving process that unifies separate components. The project aims to improve our relationship with nature by bringing the community of Dessau, Germany closer to their natural surroundings.

    Pocket Parks

    Greece
    ''Pocket parks'' are new green spaces in sites that have been previously abandoned and formed urban gaps in densely populated neighborhoods of the city of Athens in all 7 municipal districts. They utilise creatively every inch of public space and form informal meeting places for residents and walkers with great benefits on biodiversity, social inclusion and climate change issues on a local scale reintroducing to the residents their neighborhood safer, cleaner and greener with cooler areas.
