Casa Ágora

Ágora house

Housing implanted on a plot of 112m2, with a single front facing the street of 5.77m wide.

 

The house is articulated by superimposing linear stairs located parallel to the left mediator, which give access to each of the floors.

 

The house is developed on three levels. On the ground floor is the entrance hall and a large area initially intended for parking. On the first floor are the day stays and service areas (kitchen, toilet, laundry room), while the second floor houses the bedrooms.

 

To allow ventilation and natural lighting in all rooms of the house, two interior courtyards, one central, more public and larger, have been arranged, around which most of the program is developed; and another of a more private nature and linked to the service area, located at the bottom of the plot.

 

The facade, geometric, modular composition and controlled holes, responds to the characteristics of the street: narrow and of little urban value.

 

This "hostile" environment has largely conditioned the design of the entire house. The house is projected inwards, displaying a sober and contained image to the outside.
