Together with the program, of a house for a couple and another for the parent of one of them, the urban regulations will condition us in the action, forcing us to a building with a large development in the perimeter to be able to match both houses, and the use of a contemporary architecture; without forgetting the tools inherited by the traditional practice in terms of responses to the climatic conditions of the area.
House 1 will be the generator of the architectural solution, which will end up unifying the two. The distribution of this house is solved with two prisms of two heights each, displaced in plan one with respect to the other to generate a greater perimeter length. To these prisms, which contain the interior functional program, another more open body is attached, which will contain the exterior spaces, terrace and porch.
From this geometry of house 1, house 2 will emerge, adapted to these incoming and outgoing by means of two other prisms, of only one height, which will establish visual relationships between both houses, looking for the whole to acquire a unit character.
The facades appear perforated where necessary, without forgetting that the south is the most punished by the sun, hence the appearance of small holes or large windows protected by important flights.
The characteristics of the urban environment, with isolated or semi-detached houses in a row of plots with similar architectural intentions, is altered in our intervention with the appearance of a more contemporary language, purer forms and far removed from decorative elements from other times, even from other cultures.
Although our building is alien to the immediate urban environment, we can affirm that it resorts to traditional elements of the area, almost forgotten, such as the white color of its facades, the use of the brick load-bearing wall throughout its construction or the use of large flights to the south, all handled from the point of view of constriction with respect to superficial ornaments.
