| “.... look Mike, nothing´s goin a change, everything still remains the same…” | ||
| Contemporary City, trying to retrieve elements to shape its urban order and traditional structure, returns to the streets again,... but now from a high density residential view. | ||
| Unfortunately, today, there are no milestones to justify public spaces and highways, created to connect the successive urban expansions, replace the old pedestrian streets. | ||
| After changing the urban scale, finally cluster block urban environment will emerge just as a isolated block. | ||
| Maybe that´s why contemporary residential architecture seems to be screaming, assuming a landmark status in a cool urban landscape of walls and green areas instead of facades and gardens. | ||
| “…I´m sitting on the dock of the bay watching de ships role in....” | ||
| Urban squared blocks will be developed in four independent plots so individual disagreed building designs will be sure. To minimize it, we propose a neutral volume in the contacts assuming the corner as our landmark. | ||
| "Corner´s" uniqueness becomes the project´s soul: a gardened shade structure generously opened to the city, a unitary open space on which a single core articulates the building´s levels to rationalize vertical communications, simplify accesses, avoid residual spaces towards large, open, airy and shared common areas. | ||
| “…just to make this dock be my home….” | ||
| Housing Typologies are all developed from a common design piece, a wide living space visually unified through a flexible in-out glass box. | ||
