«RURBAN GEOLOGY»
In the island of Lanzarote two ways of volcanic landscape transformation converge: the rhythm of the earth and the rhythm of human life. We can talk about coexistence and overlapping of changing processes that belong to different scales: the geological and the urban one. The agriculture has turned people into powerful agents of displacement of material, as powerful as the wind which they protect themselves from.
The project takes the idea of accumulation and overlapping of layers in the landscape construction. We take the reference of a geological section from a site adjacent to our sector for the development of the proposal, planning a perforated basement and an architecture that has the ability of recognizing the strata in which it is inserted.
