Sandra González: The city of tomorrow, for the people

La Voz de Galicia 29/07/2017                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      “The economic crisis that affected, and continues to affect, our country ran into the illusion of recent graduates who found themselves in a situation that did not bode well for the future. Given this circumstance, many chose to continue training to broaden their knowledge and wait for the country’s economy to recover little by little. This was the option chosen by Sandra González, architect and creator of the City of Tomorrow project. «At the end of the degree I find myself in a crisis, which is why I continue to train and investigate. Now it seems that the crisis is ending, but the same thing is still being done as before: building for the sake of building, following the same urban plans as before,” González said. Due to this fact, she believes that it is time to “stop and think about how the city can be better, how they should consider themselves for the future, what would be the strategy to follow».”

The project by the architect Sandra González, A vila do mañá, which was carried out in municipalities in the region such as Rianxo, Ribeira and A Pobra ?as well as in others in Galicia?, will cross the pond next month to land on a conference that will take place in the Brazilian city of São Paulo.

In this way, the study of the professional, based on the recovery of urban spaces for citizens, will be presented on October 20 at the A social dimension of professional training congress. Precisely, González will already be in Brazil previously, since she has obtained a scholarship from Banco Santander to develop the research of her doctoral thesis, which calls into question the current urban plans, recovering the approaches of the theorists Oriol Bohigas and Clara Solá -Morales
