| The competition plot is located in an urban consolidated area surrounded by magnificent woodland and wide access´s avenues. The neutral existing edification is settled on staggered arrangement shaping a plaza closed by steep slopes, stairs and ramps. | ||
| Due to the height difference between the street and the plot platform, we propose a single block developed solving vehicles access (-1) from Ramón y Cajal street and ground floor pedestrian access from Nations Ave. where the commercial space is located too. The existing gardened slope works as a plinth to reduce the building scale. | ||
| The building´s section fits on described topography locating two parking and storerooms basement levels, ground floor commercial and access uses, and four residential use floors. | ||
| The building design exhausts maximum building area with mall studios, apartments and duplex accessed by a single vertical core and open galleries. This young housing design optimizes distribution areas and provides north woodland and east beautiful views. | ||
| These housing types are 35 sqm (one bedroom), 62 sqm (two bedrooms apartments) and 77 sqm (two bedrooms duplex) with variations to suit the geometrically complex plot. | ||
| Duplex are clustered in north facade, according to the street´s curved line. The studio is projected as a unitary but flexible space, depending on sliding doors´ positions. | ||
| In order to reconcile an open-plan space for parking in underground levels and no facility ducts inside houses, we design a transition structure, a slab supporting metal pillars integrated in the partitions. This constructive rationality draw facades as an structural skeleton which orders huge windows protected by exterior sliding louvres and roller blinds. | ||
