Projects
New Urbanism in Mexico – this project was a research to understand and adapt the New Urbanist principles to Mexican Cities. The city of Querétaro was selected as the case study. The research was focused on three main aspects: participatory processes, urban patterns and the transect. The project was funded by the National Agency for Science and Technology (Conacyt)
Digital city – this project was focused on the use of public apps promoted by the local authorities to engage the inhabitants of Querétaro. Our research was to observe spatial patterns on how people report to the authorities issues that were related to the provision of services.
