478:. Providing much-needed historical contextualization to IIRSA's agenda, Beyond the City ties together a series of spatial models and offers a survey of regional strategies in five case studies of often overlooked sites built outside the traditional South American urban constructs. Implementing the term “resource extraction urbanism,” Correa takes us from Brazil's nineteenth-century regional capital city of Belo Horizonte to the experimental, circular, “temporary” city of Vila Piloto in Três Lagoas. In Chile, he surveys the mining town of María Elena. In Venezuela, he explores petrochemical encampments at Judibana and El Tablazo, as well as new industrial frontiers at Ciudad Guayana. The result is both a cautionary tale, bringing to light a history of societies that were “inscribed” and administered, and a perceptive examination of the agency of architecture and urban planning in shaping South American lives. 556: 358:. Somatic Collaborative conceives design as a mediator across multiple scales of the build environment. Some of Correa's most recent design projects include the Perched House and the Neapolitan Residential and Co-Working Complex. Sited in the outskirts of Kassel (Germany), the Perched House is an experimental home designed as part of the Ways of Life program for Documenta 14, that investigates new relationships between domestic space, remote working, and new connections to nature. The Neapolitan Complex in 22: 544:(with Joan Busquets) Busquets and Correa outline the specific methods, tools, and lenses that current designers are utilizing as they shape and develop today's cities.
