More than designing 3 buildings, the project proposes the creation of a place, with a sustainable and positive image.
Dematerialized volumes on their tops and surfaces create cantilevers above the uneven topography promoting continuity of a common ground.
A white wall shapes a triangular square on two levels of stay. With a single gesture, it settles a formless and uncharacteristic public space.
Durability as sustainability: hard hull and light interior.
Reference to ancestral, timeless terracotta.
Prefabricated parts fitted in T and Z create a pattern on the facade.
Randomness as a contemporary image, reflecting the typological heterogeneity of the interior
Open project, capable of absorving the desire of all its participants and contemporary programmatic unpredictability.
Recessed balconies, as life aggregating nuclei, ancestral memory of the patio.
