Residential building in Es Vivero
Two very different urban contexts overlap at this corner property. The narrow front faces a busy arterial road. The back stretches along a quiet residential street. The design of the project responds to this contrast in scale and building regulations. An elevated three-story massive volume marks the corner and reacts to the most urban condition of the place while four row houses establish continuity with the existing residential neighborhood.
The row houses are characterized by an open plan on the ground level, from the street to the inner private garden. On the upper floor, a partial split level allows daylight into the bathroom and onto the stairway.
Although formally distinct, the two structures are united by the use materials and a shared design for the street level. Conceptually they both engage with urban thinking and detail scale, traditional standards and innovative forms.
