The Four Essential Criteria of the Project:
1. Corn's Purity in Mexico (The Historical Value of Corn)
2. Urban Location and Connection to the Historic Center
3. The Modern Value of Corn
4. Palimpsest of Historical Events

The Project's Schematic Plan:
1. Rooftop Cornfield
2. Processing Plant (Corn - Corn Starch - PLA)
3. 3D Printing System for Consumption
4. 3D Printing System for Ornamented Motif Blocks
5. Market for Food Production
6. Templo Mayor's Revival Structure
(Connection through Superstructure on Rooftop)


Superimposition of the Aztec City on current urban planning
