Other Projects by Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura
Kafka Castle
Sant Pere de Ribes, Spain
The
interest felt by the first members of the Taller de Arquitectura for
some of the ideas of the Archigram movement, together with a fascination
for the form of the cube and the exploration of the possible
combinations this permitted, resulted in the construction of a series of
projects based around a methodology rooted in the spatial development
of this combination. The apartment block near Sitges known as El
Castell (catalan for “castle”, in homage to Franz Kafka) was one of the
first examples of this experimentation with vertical development.
Without plans, simply with the equation of vertical growth in mind, the
cubes were constructed around a sequence of stairs wells. Each cube
contains one space (living room-dinning room or bathroom-bedroom)
divided by a change in level. One side of each cube connects with the
central core of the stair well.
Program: 90 apartments, swimming pool, sauna, bar and restaurants.
