The concept of architecture as a mediator between the individual and the collective is once again the leitmotif of the project. The idea of unity was reinforced by consolidating the six houses into a large horizontal volume with simple lines, using a timeless language where brick takes center stage. The rectangular prism rests on a series of walls perpendicular to it, responsible for subdividing and supporting it.
The volume is positioned with its longest side parallel to Donado Street, the most trafficked thoroughfare. The courtyards are oriented to the west, towards the tranquility of the neighborhood, while vehicular and pedestrian access is located to the east, allowing the houses to distance themselves from the city's movement.
The way the prism is perforated, interrupting the continuity of the facades, allows for voids that regulate the entry of light and provide privacy. These intermediate spaces act as a buffer between the interior and exterior, between the public and private, endowing the interior spaces with a portion of nature.
The houses are developed on two levels. The ground floor houses the social area, fully permeable to the courtyards. The longest side of the main living area is materialized with a large glass facade facing the west courtyard, blurring the boundary between interior and exterior. The front facade facing the internal street is materialized with a metallic skin that creates a rhythm of recesses and projections. The carefully perforated upper floor houses the sleeping quarters.
