Qualificació obtinguda: 8,5 Màster universitari en Disseny -- Contemporary Design

The work explores the potential of flexible architecture as an agent in response to the needs of a community deprived and in constant flow of change, located at the periphery of Ziguinchor, Senegal, Africa. Studies on humanitarian architecture provide the basis for understanding the real needs of the human being. In this community, they are manifested in a floating way, by factors such as family, climate, people mobility, work, agricultural production, among others, as the Liquid Societies described by Zygmunt Bauman. In this way, the work will seek in the writings of Luis Arenas, Toyo Ito and Ignasi de Solà-Morales, an approximation about the definition of Liquid Architecture, that refers to the constant transformation of space, which in an unstable condition like that of liquids, is able to absorb the needs of the human being. As a way of concretize this concept, there are found in the flexibility, architectural solutions suitable for application in the design of a Community Center for Burofaye.
