Part I: Urban Architecture

I have been always fascinated
by urban architecture.


For me, architecture is a study
about how to create places where
people feel themselves good

While traditional
architecture deals with this
regarding to a single building

urban architecture has to
encompass the whole life of a
single individual

from getting to work in the
mornings


to have something to
look at from the ofﬁce
windows


to have somewhere to
lunch


to get the groceries


to feel good when
crossing the parks and
squares going home


or meeting friends


feeling safe when going
out to a pub or for a
dinner


and coming home
afterwards


not only that: apart from
enabling the citizens to live
their weekdays and weekends
to the fullest


urban architecture also has
to deal with their time spent
in other cities - as tourists
