The urban plan of the zone defines an isolated rectangular block, set back from the streets behind the ground floor gardens. The building consists of a basement, ground floor and two further floors. The entrances are in the northern facade to make use of the difference in street levels, and open onto the project’s central green zone.
The building has 18 housing units of three bedrooms and 31 parking spaces. The resulting shape is a compact block with awnings and retractable blinds on the south facade used as mobile features, which add life and movement to it.
The building type chosen has three stairwells with access on each floor to two dwellings per landing and giving rise to dual-aspect dwellings with natural sunlight, cross ventilation and with living rooms and kitchens to the south and bedrooms to the north. The dwellings at either end of the blocks will have a different layout to make the most of their three facades.
The different spaces in the dwelling can relate to each other to provide flexibility in how they are used and to adapt to the needs and preferences of each user. The continuous terrace along the south facade links the spaces, protecting them from the sun and providing an exterior space that is flows into the rooms used in the daytime.
