House in San Sebastián

proyecto triangular as Architects

The project is located within a fully developed gated community in the district of Pilar, Buenos Aires. We understand that a house is a community of spaces that engage in dialogue with each other, potentially giving rise to various modes of inhabiting. The premise that defines the project is the generic, rethinking the modes of dwelling and how this condition interacts with contemporary architecture. Its organization on one level proposes a social wing and an intimate wing, separating domestic activities. The atomization of services, detached from the perimeter, defines a support core responsible for condensing equipment, storage, and bathrooms, conceived not as furniture but as objects capable of being activated on all sides; consequently freeing up the rest of the space for flexible or static occupation, depending on the activities they support.

Defined as a minimum unit within the regulations established by the neighborhood in line with the client's request, set at 120m2 covered and 80m2 semi-covered. A balanced dwelling between private and communal spaces is projected. The proposal is flexible, configurations are extensive, without hierarchies or distinctions. The interior condition proposes spatial homogeneity between compatible programs, both those requiring greater privacy and those hosting collective activities within the dwelling. This attention is articulated by a series of outdoor spaces conceived as graduated landscapes according to the activities inherent in the dwelling, allowing regulated transitions from front to back.

The challenge is to conceptualize a home in systematic and rational terms, maintaining a domestic and contemporary language over a traditional method, studying the inherent logics of the elements. The project's conception is hybrid, studied as a model understood as a cell, which structurally materializes with steel framing panels, complemented in the roof by wooden beams, configuring a module compatible with gypsum board panels that consolidate the interior surface simultaneously with phenolic panels that brace the roof and function as a ceiling. Towards the exterior, the wall is solidified with brick, interspersed with some opportunities where wood also takes center stage.
