The history of Ford GT 40 is probably one of the best known stories of the automotive industry. the story begins with herry ford II trying to buy the enzo ferrari company, when he was about to buy it in change of opinion what detonated in hennry a desire for revenge and to carry it out was associated with carriage shelvy a former racing driver for create a car that vemciera to ferrari in the 24 hours of mans where ferrari until the monento was the queen of that competition. In this way the Ford GT 40 was born, one of the most iconic cars in the United States to beat the most recognized brand in the main automotive competitions and recently ford a new version of the Ford GT which, like its predecessor, won in the 24 hours of le mans but not in the main category so it was not so recognized but reaffirms that sometimes revenge brings good things if this is concetrated in a good plan and hard work can overcome things that seemed impossible and not must do in an impulsive or hasty manner.

workshop

honestly this was not a good semester for me in the educational so I will talk about the subject that as an architecture student I should always enjoy or at least try that is workshop, in this semester workshop was marked by being my second verz in a traller of that level so it started in a rather frustrating way for me, but little by little I started to motivate myself with the project and to recover a good level, to then fall again and now to go back to the good thing is that as it is not enough it is impossible to return to lower the level, so in conclusion for me it has been a workshop with different emotions, but apparently it will have a happy ending. For those who do not know what the workshop is, it is where, in theory, all the other subjects come together and are carried out with projects that incorporate the variables learned or, in a few words, where the models are made.

Giovanni Bertone

Giovanni Bertone  was an Italian automobile designer, known for establishing the  Carrozzeria Bertone  business. He was part of a family of farmers, from his childhood was related to construction and manufacturing, in addition to being a friend of Vincenzo Lancia (founder of lancia & C) Bertone worked as a designer for such important brands as Lamborghini and Lancia, two recognized brands in the world of motorsports, the first for supercars and the second was one of the main teams in the world of rally and now regrettably disappeared.

It should be noted that one of his sons continued the career of designer of cars and was the one who designed t...

Blogpost 6: Free Topic 2 the house in Chile of the XVII Century

the house in Chile of the XVII Century -In Chile there is a process of ruralization (unlike in the rest of America), because cities are considered dangerous. -1598 an indigenous uprising confirms the dangerousness of the cities by leaving 7 of these in ruins. -Thanks to this process the dominant typologies of this period are the employer's houses, which are governed by a "pattern", which have a multiproductive function to be habitable throughout the year -Each city is separated by many haciendas or employer's houses. -The production of these haciendas has as main destination Peru. Personally, I think Chile has always been a country that is influenced a lot by external cultures, but it has always had to maintain characteristics of its original inhabitants due to its geographical particularities.

Blogpost 5: A Photo and its Story

this is the first photo of my final project of workshop, it means a lot to me because it means that the harsh autumn semester at the university is already ending and it's time to rest and resume my social life for some time, then come back to a next semester with animosity and honestly I do not have many photos on my cell phone, because I think the photos steal the soul of the people and this was the first photo I saw and I liked. I regret not having a photo with a good story but I guess not all people keep their memories in photos and personally prefer to keep my memories in my mind especially if it is presonal memories and so not depend on any object ageno to remember .
