In a slope raises a two-story house with distinct
entrances for each floor. The property is developed as a narrow longitudinal
scheme to make the most of garden plot. The volume arises from the main street
of the merger of the two branches of access and it develops as a concrete
materialization in the first floor which rises to close the volume weightless
cantilever.This house is perhaps the most expressive I have
done. We wanted that huge concrete surfaces were to fly over the ground,
without giving too many clues of structural performance. We were looking for a
non logical structure to provide spaces of something magical ...
The volume setting has been designed to deceive the
intuitive structural sense tells us why things do not fall. Contemplating large
and heavy volumes of concrete without knowing where they hold an odd and
pleasant sensation. The heavy becomes light.
The large glass skylight manages to create the feeling
of being outside, and consciousness breaks indoors as possible, and increase
the lightness of the staircase. We used calibrated round20mm. The end result
has a surprising rigidity. IPE200 beams that support the treads hanging, were
bolted to the concrete by a plate dimension of the head of the beam.
The space change with movement and with the variable
interaction of sunlight, each moment and every single position in space.
The house is composed of overlapping spatial concepts.
Some are more three-dimensional, others are more bi-dimensional, and everything
is woven by one-dimensional vertical rods of the ladder.
The material that creates the main enclosure is
concrete. What is not concrete, or fluted metal is polished stainless steel.
The windows are aluminum finished steel. We selected a special profile of
straight angles. My intention is that nature is reflected in the skin of the
building, accentuating the flight of the large volume of concrete.
