House in Calviá
It is a house that works strongly linked to the plot.
The building is interpreted as a longitudinal element that emerges from the terrain and is implanted almost in the middle of the plot, thus taking advantage of all its nuances. Two environments are created, giving the project two main façades.
The first façade relates to the private aspect, to the human scale. A façade on a height where the programme of rooms are located, the most reserved uses and away from the public view.
The other façade is the one that is shown to the world, the one that can be seen from the outside.
It is a single façade of greater height and more representative, where the daytime uses and noble areas of the house are located. It also relates to the accesses to the house and to the outdoor leisure areas.
The relationship between the lower façade and the higher façade
is materialised internally in a spatial play of full and empty spaces, of crossed visuals between them, which enrich the project and give it coherence, stitching together the private and public spheres. The building thus becomes the articulation between the two differentiated areas of the plot.
All of this is organised under the sometimes visible, sometimes invisible influence of a modulation
that governs and organises the entire floor plan, provides structural rhythm and helps to compose the openings in the façade. These are almost the logical product of applying the function within the modulation.
The result is a tidy, timeless, disruptive project with its stamp. With identity.
