TAAC - Taller Activo
Prof: Alfonso Garduño / Edmundo Palacios
colab. in the construction.
TAAC is an alternative practice of intervention in the city that reorganizes, reconnects, reimagines and restores the existing resources of the less favored communities through a program of inclusive and participatory actions.
​
The project is located in Altos de San Pablo, Queretaro, Mexico. This area is the only public space the community has. It was used as a meeting point between the different groups that coexist in the area.
The main idea consisted of creating a space that generated a social impact among the communities, by designing an economical and sustainable project that involved the people's needs.
​
As a non-profit workshop, one of the aims was to obtain the resources for the construction. For this, we created fundraising events and donations, as well as involving the community during the construction process. The program is a central covered space for multiple uses and two productive projects. (a kitchen and collection center.)
