CHELA EN BARCELONA: April 2007
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 19, 2007. If you ever wondered what does an architecture student look like before a really big deadline, well, you don't have to imagine it anymore! Labels: This was too funny not to put up. For you piker ;). Black Madonna of Montserrat. Procesion, Plaza San Jaume. In front of the cathedral, what was once the Via Augusta still remains as one of the main roads in the old city. You can actually see the enormous boulders from the Roman wall on the sides of that entrance. Just for fun ;).

CHELA EN BARCELONA: March 2007
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 27, 2007. Project I- Phase III. Part three, DONE! Within the group, three new proposals would be developed in terms of the block's building massing, later on focusing on one building, it's physical form and possible impact on the adjacent areas. For my approach, I focused my thoughts around the concept of filtration. How can this be applied to a building form? For the 'pin-up' we were to present our main concept aside from the new massing design; diagrams representing our overall ideas.

CHELA EN BARCELONA: January 2007
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 21, 2007. Compendio of the weekend. EL WEEKEND SALVA VIDAS! This past weekend was by far the best. not only did we go to see impressive Roman ruins but I also BOUGHT MY BOOOOOTS! During the afternoon we went (minus Billy [he didn't get lost this time], Felipe and Tom) 1). to the Old City Museum in which we saw the biggest underground Roman excavation in the world (ironically bigger than those in Italy). La Oveja Negra (The Black Sheep). The apartment if full of laundry (literally), that's...

CHELA EN BARCELONA: Project I- Phase IV
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007/05/project-i-phase-iv.html
Monday, May 7, 2007. Project I- Phase IV. Today was definitely the most important day in the development of this overall project; after months, weeks, days of work, we presented our proposals to a representative of the city council. TOUGH! Our projects hadn't changed that much from our last pin-up; however, we were to develop even further our designs creating from floorplans to façades. Just to show how nice everybody looked ;).

CHELA EN BARCELONA: February 2007
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 17, 2007. Which means whatever basically. Back to not making sense when speaking, behaving in unusual ways when not getting enough sleep. this is our life, and HORRAY. We found it again after 10 days of happiness. Friends and family members, with all of our love, here's my documentation of a couple of these moments:. What would be of Spain without tapas, sangria, toros, flamenco, Picasso, Gaudi? What would Spain be without la Alhambra, without the world reknown morish architecture?

CHELA EN BARCELONA: Easter
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007/04/easter-con-papa.html
Thursday, April 19, 2007. For you piker ;). Black Madonna of Montserrat. Procesion, Plaza San Jaume. La leona. Once a hostal for travelers to stay in, now it is a place of importance to the locals. The children climb up and kiss the lion's behind, the 'retired' people rub their lottery tickets on the animal's bottom (as the lady demonstrates in the pic). what does it mean. they say it holds your definite return to the city. It was very amousing to see it! The christian way for entering the city. Below, i...

CHELA EN BARCELONA: Parcs i Jardins de Barcelona
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007/05/parcs-i-jardins-de-barcelona.html
Monday, May 7, 2007. Parcs i Jardins de Barcelona. As part of our BCN experience our own professor Vidal took us on an excursion to five parks all over the city. It was nice to see places where the locals tend to go to enjoy their days (mostly when the weather is nice). Their composition within the context they were built in helped us a bit more in our understanding of the city we're living in. Parc Güell, Antoni Gaudí. Parc de la Creueta del Coll, Martorell–Bohigas–Mackay. My best friend when it rains :).

CHELA EN BARCELONA: TO THE 'SAW MOUNTAIN' WE GO!
http://marquezbcn2007.blogspot.com/2007/05/day-montserrat.html
Monday, May 7, 2007. TO THE 'SAW MOUNTAIN' WE GO! This was one of our last weeks in Barcelona and thanks to professor Vidal we had a nice break one of the weekends, he took us all the way up to beautiful Montserrat (I had already been there with my dad; I didn't mind at all going back. this is a place worth returning to as often as one can, it's beauty doesn't allow it to get old). Basílica de Mare de Déu de Montserrat. Everybody conquering the saw mountain. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
