In the beginning there were two single-story
houses, unproportioned in the street context which in itself is characterized
by a cold, gray and misfit appearance in its constituent buildings with
decontextualized images and striking façades. The buildings ranged from typical
historic buildings to others that were more contemporary or pointed towards
that intention. The idea was to simplify with clean and sober lines, something
that would find itself without emphasis, something light, something that would
adapt to the immense possible futures that the street may have.
The building appears as a volume at the street
level, that gets suspended in its inner quarter over the basement floor, where
the parking lot is located. Basically, it’s a suspended volume without
interfering with the neighboring ones.
The building is developed/ designed for
a university market "target", so its interior is defined by this
concept, through apartments with a simple set of plans, and other more
avant-garde elements working in perfect harmony.
Through the use of
color, it is provoked a sense of living, that doesn’t cause restrictions but
turns the place fluid to the several contexts this typology might have. It felt
imperative to attribute character to this interior space, enabling to be
someone’s space, someone who is starting a new academic or professional life or
even just passing temporarily, this should be the space that allows them to feel
as their own place, their home for the time being.
