Macarena Chaves Martinez <\/strong><\/a>joined the\u00a0Architect-US <\/a>Job+J1 Visa Program<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0more recently and has been working towards getting an opportunity to work in the USA again. Last time she submitted to the\u00a0Portfolio Challenge,\u00a0<\/strong>she\u00a0submitted StartMad<\/strong>, which won her an Amazon Gift Card.\u00a0<\/strong>She worked on while in\u00a0Madrid<\/strong>, which seeks to provide designs for a northern section of the city known for its financial district and tall towers. This area of\u00a0Madrid<\/strong> has many start-up companies that require a different style of office space that promotes more interconnection and communication.<\/p>\n

This time around she submitted a project called Arts & Cars<\/strong>, which aims to create a space for both in a clean and aesthetically pleasing form. Many times we think of car parks as ugly, large and imposing concrete structures that are in eye sore in the city.\u00a0Macarena<\/strong> believes it is possible to incorporate the car park into an artistic space that adds to the urban renewal of a city, while also providing utility to commuters and those with cars.<\/p>\n
