SLP 37 is a renovation project of two underutilized and deteriorated storeys of a mix-use building which holds local stores on ground level. Its privileged location inside a rising neighborhood (Colonia Roma) and the incrising real-estate investments makes it a potential asset for the owner who seeks to lease the property continuously.
The first storey is conceived as an open space appropiate for social uses with the possibility of adapting an extra dormitory; while the second storey is a more private one, holding the main dormitory with a terrace. This flexibility enables the spaces to be adapted varying on the necessities of the possible users.
The materialization is characterized by the balance of existing materials like brick and concrete with subtle interventions of white planes and wood surfaces.
