DOS FABRICA
Synopsis:
Dos Fabricas is an industrial structure that incorporates the two processes such as a recycling and waste to energy facility, together with an educational component of a public gallery. The juxtaposition between industrial processes that deal with garbage, and art combines high and low culture elements that brings a new perspective to what these facilities can be. Recognizing the future flood plains in the Brooklyn Navy Yards, the project welcomes the water into the site boundaries to create a new urban ecology. The building is also lifted from the ground to allow the various programs in the building to continue uninterrupted in the future .
