Recacha House / Studio Wet

Pilar Caballero — Sat, 30 Nov 2019 09:00:00 +0000

The renovation of this old residential building in the historic center of Seville has a special relevance to our office due to the expanded time frame in which it has been developed, including constant changes in the program of the building. We worked with this production for almost a decade. We changed deeply as architects while its construction continued slowly along the road map we settled in 2010.

Casa Borrero / Studio Wet

Daniel Tapia — Thu, 04 Jul 2019 14:00:00 +0000

Alosno is a small village in "Andévalo", a subregion of the Province of Huelva in the southwest of Spain. It is a place known for a special type of Flamenco music called Fandango, world-famous charcuterie Jamón Ibérico, and close proximity to the mines of Tharsis, and thus to its English colonial architecture. In this context, we were commissioned to design a single family house, described as "traditional" by our clients.

Casa Lissen / Studio Wet

Cristobal Rojas — Wed, 18 Jan 2017 15:00:00 +0000

We have designed the extension for a single family house, which is settled in an urban fabric that has been consolidated since long ago. The existing atmosphere of the neighbourhood -facades, colors, materials, trees- is legally protected by urban regulations. The design also faces the wishes of the client to take the maximum profit from the spare square meters, always within a low budget and some reasonable programmatic requirements. There are also some specific urban regulations on regard to the new volumes and its aesthetics that we have to deal with, along with the inherent technological restrictions of a small construction company from Southern Spain. All these issues come together to build up a way of working, a way we feel comfortable with, which we use to call “Critical Pragmatism”

37 Dwellings in Guadix / Studio Wet + Antonio G. Liñán

Fernanda Castro — Thu, 14 Mar 2013 00:00:00 +0000

Guadix is located in a singular placement from the point of view of its geology, at the foot of Sierra Nevada Mountains, and over a valley formed by clay, which has been scratched and drilled by the Mediterranean Sea on the process of leaving this land to its current limits. These facts have affected the way people has lived and built in this area, from the so-called “casas-cueva” (caves converted into houses) to the wide use of clay-bricks in its well known cathedral. Thus, this social housing proposal stands on a faceted and sculpted volume through large folded surfaces.
