The best neighborhood is not composed of singular architectural works. Systematicity, a certain homogeneity, and expressive restraint are attributes we consider necessary for the majority of residential buildings. Therefore, the repetitive exterior facades, with uniform apertures that do not reveal the specific rooms they illuminate to the casual observer, contribute to a serene urban ensemble while providing identity to the complex without renouncing a certain visual vibration.

Neither a block nor a perimeter block; the fully closed block can be restrictive. We maintain its morphology by preserving alignments with adjacent blocks, yet the interior garden relates to the street and the exterior by opening to the south. The subtle helical form of the complex maintains the urban scale while adding an orderly visual reference to the Sanchinarro neighborhood. The interior, which provides access to all dwellings, has a more domestic scale and is visually enriched by the geometric dissonances of the helix.

The garden is continuous, with sloping and slightly broken surfaces and gentle landscaped mounds that create a topography where a child can play hide and seek.

Social housing regulations determined the solution regarding surface areas and the number of bedrooms. The geometric structure, strictly modulated on a 2.70 m grid, allows for the dual positioning of living areas on either facade, thus varying the orientation of the dwelling and providing great typological diversity. Cross-ventilation, double circulation, dual orientation, and a variety of types have been an essential goal. Twenty-one housing types, including single-story, duplex, or garden configurations with 2, 3, or 4 bedrooms, maximize the typological possibilities.
