Architecture is inherent to the human condition and to knowing “who will inhabit it.” Therefore, creating, designing, planning, and constructing a residential building for people we do not know, whose habits and daily lives we do not master, with whom we do not interact in the pursuit of the “best aesthetics or materiality”, is a complex, daring, and risky exercise, especially in the midst of an ordinary, bland urban environment.
The resulting building aims to be an urban reference and a point of continuity, an extension of public space and its alignments, vehicular and pedestrian paths, seeking to generate dynamism and the greatest possible interaction at the pedestrian level. In contrast, it aspires to be unique in its design and volumetry, breaking up into “solids and voids” created by projections and recesses for balconies, generous openings that let light into its interior, and a materiality that contrasts in its cladding and colors.
The final solution leaves us doubly satisfied: the building is urban and continuous in what is essential for the city. It is distinctive and a reference point for all who observe and enjoy it. It is believed it will provide well-being and comfort for those who will live there. This is architecture that achieves identity, because only then does it gain global meaning and complete fulfillment.
