Registration by 4th February 2009

Satélite Towers (1958) designed by Luis Barragán
and Mathias Goertiz, now in the process of being catalogued as
National Artistic Heritage, ARQUINE announces its 11th International
Competition, proposing the design of a "FARO of Satélite"
in the plaza where the towers are located. At a moment when this
milestone of Mexican and international modernity runs the risk
of an assault by the government of the Estado de México,
in the form of a second level of the Periférico ring road,
this call for new ideas proposes to depress the lateral circulation
along the east of the towers and generate a pedestrian connection
with Ciudad Satélite, extending the plaza and installing
a parking area for 50 vehicles underneath the extension. The
competition calls for the design of a FARO which would redefine
the zone, giving programmatic content to a space that has been
rendered incommunicado and generating a new public space.
