Armeria House
Paseo Camu, Rios, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
Casa Armer is development that occurs upon a lot of
approximately 450 sq. mt. in Urbanizaci Los Rs, in the city of Santo Domingo. The lot
has an irregular shape and, with a north-south orientation, it has a number of
topographic features that are ultimately defined by a couple of terraces
separated by a slope of approximately 4.00 meters. The geometry that defines
the inhabitable space follows the natural shape of the lot and the rigors of
the project's program.
The house has been projected in three
levels; a lower level with direct access to the street, that houses the garage,
the foyer, the services areas and the vertical access ways that connect it to
the second level, where the social areas -dinning room, kitchen, etc. - are
located, which look over the area of the verandah and backyard through openings
that face east and south. The family and sleeping quarters are located on the
third level, with openings facing north, east and south while closed towards
the west.
As a result of the formal exploration, we
have proposed an articulation of two disengaged volumes that move randomly and
allow different readings either by juxtaposition, by penetration, by contrast
through the use of texture, or by the use of different proportions in the openings.
One of the volumes stands out by means of color, which becomes a resource
inherent to it. The railings have been used as part of the formal expression
while the eaves provide a relational point of inflection. The combination of
these elements apparels the everyday habitat.
