HOUSING Housing
13 HABITATGES A VIA AUGUSTA Barcelona, 2014
The program develops thirteen homes on land that faces the Via Augusta and New Street of Santa Eulalia, with a height of the floor between two ends of the both front streets. Community areas and two houses are located on the ground floor. On1st, 2nd and 3rd floor there are homes and on the 4rth floor there are two units placed that completes the number of thirteen homes planned. The access and mobility inside the building happens through the courtyard with staircase and galleries that, at the same time, that provides ventilation of dwellings and facilitates the distribution of these to the second facade. The access galleries were proposed as a semi-private spaces with a function of making relations between residents. The same is with terraces or balconies in the courtyard. This project is a structure with frames of exposed plywood facade as a grid of wood that was filled with locks brickwork and window holes. The brick factory is also used in the interior courtyard facades to accentuate its ‘exterior‘ character. Its structural scheme was conceptually proposed in a very simple way, based on cross-laminated timber frames of a single bay, with pillars embedded in the two longitudinal walls and beams picking up edge varies depending on the light cover. The energy efficiency of the building is one of the main challenges of the project to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and ensure an adequate level of comfort for users. The active and passive cooling elements were included.
