Bio
Architect/
Designer

My name is Carlos T. Acosta Pérez. I am a Puerto Rican architect and artist with an M.Arch from Pratt Institute and a bachelor's in environmental design from the University of Puerto Rico. My work showcases my ability to create innovative and resilient designs, leveraging skills in 3D modeling, drawing, rendering, and animation. Besides my architectural practice, I pursue independent artistic projects, especially in 3D modeling, visualization, drawing, and mixed media. My interests cover a wide range of topics within our field, but I am especially focused on how identity, culture, sci-fi, and retrofitting influence architecture. I am fascinated by how these elements can be expressed physically in construction, going beyond decoration while respecting their context

PARACADE





Synopsis:


The development of the Paracade module is based on the constant high changes in the environment and the lack of buildings, especially old ones to provide the comfort zone needed for its inhabitants. Looking at the alternative of completely erasing a building, I instead look at adapting them for the changes needed adding to the envelope. The Paracade consists of prefabricated modules join by a magnetic attachment that then it’s installed in the facade of the building then letting the material “subtancia” grow as needed by the presence of light.
