Paseo La Cuba Social Housing
The project seeks to reconcile the scale of the ensemble with a more domestic character by fragmenting the volumes into four smaller pieces. This fragmentation creates a landscaped interior space that provides access to all the dwellings and allows for fluidity between the surrounding green areas. These smaller volumes rise five stories so they do not cast shadows on the longitudinal block. This main block features an open ground floor containing a single unique dwelling with a small garden, topped by four standard floors and a fifth story with three penthouses.

Los Jameos del Agua

For this reason, we want to achieve a unique space from the place where the project is located. This concept has inspired a promotion of 20 single-family homes, within the neighborhood of -El Bercial-, in the municipality of Getafe. The site is bordered on its three sides by streets; three roads with road and pedestrian traffic and one pedestrian. This allows us to obtain four facades from the set. The project aims to... More
