This work arose in response to a very specific situation: a warped topography, a particular relationship with the landscape, an extreme continental climate, and fiscal adjustment in the housing itself. Away from the city center, at levels slightly higher and open place is devoid of accommodation that provides the framework of the historical. It’s linked to a territorial dimension to it by the presence of the Sierra de Alameda. The apple has a nearly rectangular geometry is divided into 2 rows of 13 rectangular plots of approximately 6.50 meters in front and 18 deep.
Intervention is inserted into the landscape as a unit under a pitched roof the color of the clay soil site and conforming to the topography of the hillside, eight-meter drop to the west and two north.
To meet the different orientation and due to the change in transverse dimension have two types of houses whose main difference is the relationship with the street, each house is set on continuity of soil and two patios, one outside and one inside. On the north side yards are high compared to the street and on the south facade are recessed.
The discontinuity caused by the topography obtained in both cases working with the concept of limits in a place where life in the caracters in the streets is part of popular culture. There is a sequence for providing access to living spaces extends beyond the parameters of social housing built surfaces. Similarly backyards occur in continuity with the interior rooms. This common courtyard that functions as a impluvium is paved with a floor trowelled to prevent water from affecting the foundation. The exteriors but are left with topsoil to expect users to plant a tree or geranium colonize the concrete wall.
