Mixed use development Urban gateway

Project type: theoretical Location: Bucharest, Romania Description: This project is the result of a student workshop on urban composition and design. The aim of the project was discovering ways to improve citywide traffic by reorganizing an important city junction, while at the same time regenerating the urban fabric to create a space that would be representative, accessible and diverse in use. This was achieved by correcting street grid issues at identified problem intersections and emphasizing public transport connections through reorganization of the bus/tram stop and implementation of light rail to make use of old rail infrastructure in the area. The pedestrian are was redesigned into a wide promenade with connections to the local park. New mixed use buildings were proposed, including apartment buildings, shopping centers, office spaces, multimedia centre, a library and a hotel.

Strategic planning Transborder cooperation

Drobeta Turnu-Severin Kladovo Orsova.

Project type: theoretical, diploma Location: Djerdap/Portile de fier, border between Romania and Serbia, Description: This project involved a high amount of data analysis in order to get a comprehensive image of the forces that work to shape this region, from macro scale to local scalepopulation, businesses, connectivity (physical and informational), sociocultural factors, macroeconomic and political factors. The project sought to evaluate and highlight opportunities for transborder cooperation that would prove that the sum is greater than its parts. The analysis drew attention to the good cooperation history in the region and the fact that each city has the potential to specialize in a specific economic area, making cooperation all the more important and with a potential to create a city system with strong synergy. The project went on to propose a set of policies, programs and projects that could bring the vision into being through strategic planning, and created an example of a possible resulting transborder cityscape.

Wood structure Family house

Project type: architecture Location: Plavia, Romania Description: This is a housing project for a family with two children, set in a peaceful hillside village. The family wanted a cottage look, with modern amenities integrated, like solar panels and controlled heating. Interiors are flooded in natural light and spacious, but without having the house live a big footprint over the land. The structure is light and resilient, with sandwich walls filled with wool insulation so that the building is highly energy efficient.

Mixed structure Urban Hotel

Project type: architecture Location: Ploiesti, Romania Description: The project involves the extension of a restaurant with the addition of a small hotel. Although the site is confined to a very special L shape and subject to existing urban fabric restrictions, the resulting design manages to extract the full potential of the site, while providing 11 double rooms and a spacious apartment, a recreation area and a conference room. Because of the high construction density in the area, the project recommends the installation of green roof garden over the reception and conference hall, and a green wall to mark the access to the reception hall. The structure proposed is concrete and wood for restaurants terrace .
