AV House
Mar Azul, Argentina
The 20m x 30m field is located in the forest of
Mar Azul and its particularity is an important and constant slope in the
direction of one of its diagonals. The views from the front are protected by
the vegetation, very profuse all over the property.
The order of the client was a house for rent,
about 100m2, with an aesthetic-constructive proposal similar to the other
houses built in the area by the studio. It was required the basic needs of a
summer house: two bedrooms, one with private bathroom, an integrated kitchen
and places to be outdoors.
Imposed a materiality and a basic program
without any particularity, it was sought in the peculiarities of the plot the
subject to deal with the project. It was then proposed that different uses
could be located in different volumes that would be arranged naturally into the
slope. This first decision triggered successive solutions derived from it: the
turn of the plan in relation to the sides of the lot in order to match its
natural slope was the first, with this axis alignment of the house in east-west
direction and, consequently, the resolution of two clearly differentiated
façades.
The rotation also determined the access from
the façade that opens onto the street and the expansion place of the house
towards the opposite. The entry to the house was proposed in the center of the
plan, i.e. the midpoint of the slope and at the same level of the sector dining
room, kitchen and outdoor expansion. From there one ascends to the quieter
areas (the bedrooms) and descends to the area of contemplation facing the
fireplace.
The house is constructed with two basic
materials: exposed concrete and glass. The slabs of the different volumes are
supported through concrete walls and beams, and were finished with a minimum
slope in order to produce faster runoff of rainwater. H21 concrete was used
with the addition of a fluidifiant so that this mixture, with little amount of
water to harden, results very compact and doesn’t require sealing. The few
interior walls of hollow bricks are finished in concrete screed; floor cloths
are also from concrete screed divided with aluminum plates. The openings are of
dark bronze anodized aluminum. The heating system, since there is no natural
gas in the area, was resolved with a system that combines a fireplace, bottled
gas stoves and electric stoves.
