BUDGET
$100K - 500K
The main
idea is to create a building that suits its immediate surroundings, being in
direct relation with the green areas around it, opening it self to the Ausias
March avenue and to the green area beside, and closing out the industries at
the rear of the building.
Having just
a few m2 build up, 229.00m2, the building is mostly related with the outside,
to achieve the maximum depth of field.
For this
reason the edification gets materialized through a fold which has all the
program, and only drilled with three independient pieces that have secondary
uses.
The main
area is based on the west part of the building, being in direct relation with
the adjacent park and the access. This area is complemented with the outside
terrace, which allocates the reception of the building and joins the building
with the green area through a set of steps that allows the direct access to the
garden.
The
secondary areas get materialized through three bodies that accommodate the rest
of the proposed uses. These three volumes differ due to their materials, black
concrete for the external perimeter and iroko wood for the walls and for their
volume, as they have a lower height than the general height of the building.
This allows to generate an area in between the secondary volume and the main
one, which is useful to allocate a small technical camera where the
installations can be kept.
The main use
of the building will be a social home for pensionists. For this reason the main
area of the building is designed as a clear space which is in direct relation
with the outside terrace and the colindant park.
Other
secondary departments will be used for an office of a podiatrist, a hairdresser
saloon and an office for the association. These get complemented with sanitary
rest rooms and a kitchen-bar to attend the main area. It has secondary ways to
access the rest rooms, so the access is not related with the shared area.
To sum up,
the aim is to create an arquitechtonic piece widely opened to its immediate
enviroment where future users can enjoy the park and its surroundings.
