CIRCULATION. The central patio creates a microclimate sheltered from the wind. The internal circulation of the building is exclusively exterior, within this controlled space. From the central patio you can access the units, without interfering with their views, through a system of labyrinthine walkways, between the treetops, away from the windows, to protect privacy, and generating an attractive and social walk.
TYPOLOGIES. The building consists of 56 apartment units, with 26 different typologies, built on the three-dimensional orthogonal grid seeking variety and interesting spatiality. The grid was designed on a 4.75 x 3.15m module, which forms a minimum structural effort, and at the same time allows great flexibility for the assembly of typologies, because it allows it to contain different programs. The cloister allows each unit to be through, with a façade both to the outside and to the inside of the patio. Thus, it is possible to obtain cross ventilation and dispense with active conditioning.
OUTDOOR SPACE FOR INTENSIVE USE. Being a primarily summer building, the exterior space - and its visuals - is of utmost importance as a place of use: each apartment consists of at least one module of exterior space. These outdoor spaces are designed for intensive use, designed with incorporated vegetation, protection against the wind - the railings are made of glass - and against the sun, pergolas and eaves. The vegetation that surrounds it generates intimacy and resembles a high meadow.
