In addition, as a design premise and to explore the possibilities of spaces that require specific responses, it is defined that the house will also be a workshop for a couple of artists. In this case, each artist with special needs: a musician and a photographer where chosen.

To schematize the distribution, two premises are followed. On the one hand, define the workshop / study spaces, next to the street, and in the background, the couple's home, enjoying the intimacy and isolation of street life. Between these 2 areas a transitional space was defined and a small relaxation pond was located, in front of the dining area and a connection bridge between the workshop and the house itself.

This corridor / bridge that crosses the plot in a transversal direction and that leads to a small green backyard, is the vertebral axis of the spaces from the street to the bottom of the lot. The two green and humid spaces, open to the sky, allow ventilation and natural lighting of all the spaces, generating in turn a pause that cuts the longitudinally of the plot.
