Competitions

O2 in '20 by Christopher Gallegos

Continuing the thread of redoing some existing work in the past to resolve some elements, this was a project in 2015 for a competition titled The Oxygen Home, a mentally rehabilitative health facility for people afflicted with lung cancer in Krakow, Poland. In the spirit of Maggie Centres, prominent alternative healthcare facilities in the UK, the Oxygen home, “is a place of community for lung cancer patients and their families to feel whole again.”

Some edits include resolutions to structural logic, incorporation of entourage and materiality, and adjustments to ADA accessibility. The full proposal can be found here.

Timber in '20 by Christopher Gallegos

This month I revisited an old competition entry for Timber in the City in 2013 titled Against the Grain. I redid the plans to reflect a more “fleshed-out” representation because I always thought the older ones lacked definition. New program was added and a little life was injected into the proposal.

I enjoyed this exercise and hope to revisit other projects to do the same.
