Text description provided by the architects. The Project task arises due the necessity to transform a dull building, without any particular neither spatial nor constructive condition.  All the strategy is base to acknowledge this precondition in order to modify it to enclose a new single-family house with new program requirements.

Exploded Axonometric

This modification begin with thinking on the pre-existent piece as a “plinth” for a new piece that allow to increase public areas, create intermediate space and it relation inside-outside that could operate as a diaphragm to control access to private areas and release as much as possible ground floor use.

The outcome is a architectural body that seek to dissolve it relation with it immediate context but creating a spatially and controlled closure.

Ground Floor Plan

To enforce this argument about the new piece and it plinth, the project works with a material diversity.  Thus the public areas, the plinth, are contained on a traditional masonry wall, painted in black, and the private areas, the new piece, are built in steel and wood boards, painted in white, that work as a ventilated walls.

First Floor Plan

The intermediate areas or interstitial spaces are treated as neutral spaces to be invaded by the domesticity condition of the task, forcing the building dissolution with it context.
