Lorena2

Hi! My name is Lorena Genovés, I’m 29 years old and I’m a graduate architect from [|Simón Bolivar University]. I knew that I wanted to be an architect since I was like 13 or 14 years old, that’s why when I graduated from high school in 2006 I knew that I wanted to study architecture. I graduated from college in 2011 and in that same year I went to New York to do after-graduate studies in interior design in the “[|New York School of Interior Design]” (NYSID). I got a master degree 2 years later, in 2013, and 6 month later, after I finished the master, I got a job in an international company in New York, and then I was moved to Barcelona, Spain to carry out a project of a building and a mall. I am currently working in other projects in Spain.

The first and most significant effect of plagiarism on architecture and urban planning is that those professionals are presenting a lack of creativity in the design of there projects and don’t have personal features that highlight them from the others, so they won’t be recognized.

//**Persuasive Paragraph (New 7 Wonders of the Modern World)**//

//Have you ever considered Machu Picchu to become one of the new 7 Wonders of the World? I've investigated about the nominates for the New 7 Wonders of the World and I thing that Machu Picchu have to be one of them. To be nominate, the Wonders had to be man made, completed before 2000, and in an acceptable state of preservation. Machu Picchu have it all, it was constructed around 1450, located 2,400 meters (7,875 ft) above sea level with polished dry-stone walls that was transported by the Quechuas to the top of the mountain. Forgotten for centuries, the site was brought to worldwide attention in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, an American historian. Since then, Machu Picchu has become an important tourist attraction. It was declared a Peruvian Historical Sanctuary in 1981 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983. That is what makes Machu Picchu even more interesting and attractive to the eye of passengers eager for adventure. So vote for Machu Picchu to become one of the New 7 Wonders of the World!//

//**Machu Picchu scrip for the exposition**//

//My favorite candidate to become one of the New7Wonders of the Modern World is Machu Picchu because I think it is extraordinary how this site was built on the top of the mountain, not only that, it is so perfect and organized, everything has a symmetry and a sense. Machu Picchu is the contemporary name of the ruins of an ancient llacta (village) Inca Stone (which original name was Picchu or Picho). It is a pre-Columbian Inca site located 2,400 meters (7,875 ft) above sea level and it is located on a mountain ridge above the Urubamba Valley in Peru, which is 80 km (50 mi) northwest of Cuzco. It is built in the middle of the fifteenth century when the Inca emperor Pachacutec (first Inca emperor, 1438-1470), built a city in the clouds of the mountain known as Machu Picchu (“Old Mountain"). Colonial documents suggest that Machu Picchu was a private property of Pachacutec, who would have used it as a palace. It was built in the classical Inca style, with polished dry-stone walls. Its primary buildings are the Intihuatana, the Temple of the Sun, and the Room of the Three Windows. The enormous difficulties that the Quechuas had to face for transporting large blocks that were used in the construction, determines that Machu Picchu has acquired a little of mystery that makes it even more interesting and attractive to the eye of the tourist. Because of a smallpox outbreak, the Incas abandoned it, and after the Spaniards vanquish at the Inca Empire, the city remained "abandoned" for three centuries. The American professor Hiram Bingham was fortunate and honored to disclose to the world in 1911 this treasure of the Inca civilization. The ruins are located in site an area protected by the Peruvian state called Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu is considered a masterpiece of architecture and engineering. It's in the list of World Heritage Sites since 1983. Due to its unique architectural features and landscaping and the literature published of the site, it has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world and the principal of Peru, where it is a national icon.//

//**Video Descriptive Paragraph (Buildings in Beijing)**//

//I considered that the National Swimming building is the best new construction in Beijing, also knows as the Water Cube. It is an aquatics centre that was built in the Olympic Green for the 2008 Summer Olympics. PTW Architects and Arup gave the Cube a sleek and lightweight design, taking the structure of soap bubbles as inspiration. The design consists of a rectangular box covered in iridescent bubble wrap. It is made of Teflon-like translucent plastic ETFE that make up the facade of the building which absorbs solar energy, reducing the cost of electricity. The building is isolated, which makes it a greenhouse where warm air can be deposited. The structure will have a capacity of 17000 during the games will be reduced to after 6000. It has a total land area of 65000 square meters and a total area of 7.8 hectares.//
