THE BLOCK HOUSE-PATIO

Aitor Ortiz

Rewriting the periphery is a common way of growing up in the city. The project site is the result of a plan to convert former industrial land into a medium-density residential area. The first operations, as in this case, are confronted with the absence of references, both architectural and natural, left behind by the old industry.

Maqueta - IX BEAU
Aitor Ortiz

In the absence of a qualified immediate environment and a defined housing programme, it is proposed to create a network of relationships that initiate an urban discourse.

IX BEAU

The plot, which is practically square, has three facades facing a square and two opposite streets at different levels. This condition is taken advantage of by concentrating accesses, stairs, lifts and vertical installations in the only party wall, in order to build a continuous volume of dwellings on the façade. In order to achieve maximum flexibility in the floor plan, a structural system is created that allows for the stratification of circulations (access galleries to the dwellings), installations (wet areas) and rooms (living rooms and bedrooms), giving rise to a mutable typology, the variants of which are multiples of a module equivalent to half a bay.
