(mentor) Faculty Architecture Department Architecture Programme Public Building Date 2013-01-29 Abstract Through the Public Building/Border Conditions research location of Madrid, the controversial area of the Cañada Real was investigated on the outskirts of the city for its spatial phenomena unique to its situation. Initially used as a farmer’s cattle trail, over the past 40 years it has become an illegal settlement containing distinct areas. Due to the complexity of relationships in these areas, conventional maps do not describe accurately the levels of information or the experience of the spaces that lie within. Through the framework of the studio, individual interpretations and self-created mappings were created to achieve an additional level of understanding. The end result of the research became a search for a design process via the mappings that lead to interpretations of the contextually discovered architectural conditions of the Cañada Real. My individual interpretations of the Cañada Real led to the research question of, "How does visual fragmentation effect spatial interpretation?" that began with a series of mappings in the form of physical models and ending in an architectural proposal that explores this question.
