Casa y Quincho Talacasto Etapa I

Estudio 2(A) DosArquitectas as Architects

The House and QuinchoTalacasto is a suburban house. As such, it is located loosely in the lot and arranged longitudinally, opening mainly to the north to receive the sun. The position of the volumes divides the lot, achieving two spaces of different qualities and uses.

The house is thought of as a linear path that introduces the habitant from the most public to the most private in a sequence of identical spaces, although with subtle variations according to the relationship with sunlight. The natural light penetrates more or less directly depending on the degree of privacy of the room.

The complete project is a 196 m2 house for permanent residence and consists of four different units according to their use. With the aim of facilitate construction in stages, the design proposes a single spatial unit that will be repeated and rotated according to programmatic requirements. The first two units built are the garage, which will also serve as a winter barbecue area, and the gallery or open barbecue sector.

Unrelated to this system of repetition and rotation is the nucleus that integrates the grill, countertop, and toilet, which by means of volumetric juxtapositions is located suggesting directions of circulation and stay. Likewise, the stones and slabs that cover the volumes materially differentiate the container and content, evidencing the interplay of fills and voids.
