SPORT RESORT is proposed as a recreational sports and holistic health center. where amateurs and professionals will be motivated to practice cycling in a space designed especially for them.
The project encompasses several types of biking which are mountain biking, cross, route, race, water and bmx, also have a museum, bike workshop and lodgings. It is conceived based on its meaning (health and coexistence) will be the HEADQUARTERS of these sports.
Researches in social anthropology propose to improve the quality of life of individuals regardless of cultural and economic levels. The World Health Organization states that health is a balance between the Biopsychosocial and Spiritual levels. Sport promotes health, discipline, perseverance and integrity. The result is a healthy person respectful of nature, society and family.
TODAY NEW SOLUTIONS BEING PROPOSED...
Displacement; Autonomous cars will take you wherever you want, while larger car will take supplies to your home. But, what about the bicycle? The best means of transportation for short distances. Better even than the electric collective transports, these do not offer mental and physical agility, in addition to freedom.
Housing; Settlements now will be smart; Towers of people in isolated and automatic communities with horizontal-vertical elevators. With all the services within reach. With which it will be a smarter world ... but sedentary. Ironic, to great solutions... Big problems...
México: All sectors are regularly in conflict of interest due to the domination of the territory. The construction of bicycle lanes in avenues is permanently boycotted by protests from "neighbors" or politicians, limiting the country evolution.
Health; Many countries, use of bicycles is only recreational. In addition, childhood obesity is increasing globally.
Pollution is another important factor that makes participants seriously ill. Also mountain bikers without a shelter nearby, are threatened by animals and insecurity; robberies and kidnappings.
They omitted people biopsychosocial aspects. Thus in this project the sports and recreational areas are not isolated. Dynamism structures are proposed throughout the whole project.
SPORT RESORT:
Pilot scheme located strategically in Tequesquitengo, MX. Environment characterized by water activities and recreational sports. [Magic-Town] immersed in the lake is one of the attractions which is seen through an underwater cycling journey.
Two towers linked diagonally through a velodrome. From simple shapes we seek to provide an iconic representation of dynamism since characteristics of a Cyclist's is; not to have borders or boundaries unlike other sports. Respecting maximum height today allowed; Tower-one (recreational and accommodation). Tower- two (museum, bicycle areas, dock).
INNOVATIVE FEATURES:
Velodrome raised above the ground, it capturing panoramic images. Dynamic Facade at night when cyclist going along the track there are holes which create a unique arrhythmic light.
• Cycling provide energy through: Solar asphalt, Friction energy storage plates and Phosphorescent paint accumulates sunlight.
• In Summer ponds works as air conditioner, in Winter a hidden public square emerges.
• Air purifiers disguised as cycling sculptures.
• Wet pipeline from the lake provides humid air to the interior.
• Rainwater and greywater treatment.
• Smart slabs increase the speed of fresh air.
• Solar-ducts and maxi domes with Venturi-outlets.
LEGACY DESIGN AND USE:
Project considers current needs and a future perspective. History records that the speed bike was manufactured in 1818 and we are in 2018 and the bicycles continue.
SOCIAL SUSTAINABILITY:
The location provides us with triathlon routes already established. Society benefits directly because it need spaces that integrate family, improve social environment, provides a sports culture in a safe place.
BARRIER-FREE ACCESSIBILITY:
Ramps providing access to all areas, it also offers biking for handicapped visitors. It is capable of handling professionals, elderly, handicapped or children.
Public spaces for the community; camping, green areas, cycling, museum, food area.
