Adib Cúre and Carie Penabad
Founding principals of the architectural firm of Cúre & Penabad, UM School of Architecture Faculty, and CCS Members Adib Cúre and Carie Penabad are UM and Harvard alums, who chose Miami to establish their practice. Originally from Colombia and Cuba, respectively, Adid and Carie have been mapping “informal cities” and settlements around the world. Starting in Mumbai, India, they have mapped settlements in Cape Town, Colombia, Guatemala, the Dominican Republic, and Havana. Currently focusing on communities of South and Central America, the hope to establish the School of Architecture as the central repository of data on informal cities throughout Latin America. (All their information is shared with the local community they’ve mapped.)
In collaboration with the School of Architecture, CCS’s Software Engineering Team has developed software to facilitate the use of camera drones and extend the constraints of traditional hand-drawn maps. The collaboration has been extremely beneficial in providing more accurate and detailed mapping. The data gathered helps determine solutions for the myriad issues facing these communities.
