Reinterpretation of the Cuelgamuro's Valley, Madrid, Spain, 2025

"Nature has a healing power. The world’s Élan Vital in its continuous transformation — always new and yet always the same in the temporal perception of living beings — is the eternal, differentiated return that provides us with a permanent memory of who we are and the promise of what we can be.
The slopes of the Cuelgamuros Valley, altered by grazing 75 years ago, are now a beautiful, rich and ecologically valuable forest. While it is impossible to separate the Monumental Complex in the Cuelgamuros Valley from the Sierra de Guadarrama, it may be possible to soften its imposing character by linking it more closely to the surrounding landscape, blurring its axial and hierarchical presence through vegetation and converting its symbolism to something more conciliatory and universal."

Proposal for the Reinterpretation of Cuelgamuro’s Valley.
2025
Floral Offerings
Upon entering the Basilica, small, luminous motifs are added to the chapels as offerings dedicated to all the victims, a nominal tribute to each of the people, identified or unidentified, who lie there. These motifs are fragments of nature. The character of an anonymous and universal work. In this way, each of the victims is metaphorically identified, that is, the abstract nature of the place is made concrete, and the place is humanized by reducing its monumentality, without eroding the power of space.

Can the landscape itself hold memory? Can a path be formed not upon the earth, but from it? The stone makes the path.
Exploring how raw material and composition can guide movement, thought, and remembrance.

Our proposal for the Reinterpretation of the Cuelgamuro’s Valley.
Nature has a healing power. The world’s Élan Vital in its continuous transformation — always new and yet always the same in the temporal perception of living beings — is the eternal, differentiated return that provides us with a permanent memory of who we are and the promise of what we can be. The slopes of the Cuelgamuros Valley, altered by grazing 75 years ago, are now a beautiful, rich and ecologically valuable forest. While it is impossible to separate the Monumental Complex in the Cuelgamuros Valley from the Sierra de Guadarrama, it may be possible to soften its imposing character by linking it more closely to the surrounding landscape, blurring its axial and hierarchical presence through vegetation and converting its symbolism to something more conciliatory and universal.

“Experience nature without leaving a trace”
The Echo was created as a solution for low impact nature exploration.
The modular construction system, showcased in this 1:20 physical model, enables rapid assembly without the use of conventional permanent foundations.

The ICON — designed by BYLD and TVA.
Tailor-made for Hub Culture @hubculture , the ICON stands as a cornerstone in our Go-to-Market strategy and showcases the innovative spirit of BYLD.
This 1:20 scale model highlights the modularity and flexibility of the design, allowing for easy customization. Facade modules can be swapped out and tailored to different materials and finishes, adapting to various needs and environments.
Designed for sustainability and efficiency, the ICON demonstrates how smart prefabrication and adaptable architecture can shape the future of low-impact construction.
Stay tuned for more updates!
