We discovered a two-story modern home, deserted earlier than its conclusion. It was a really stable concrete development, effectively designed from the perspective of its technical areas, however with many indicators of abrasion and vandalism. The home, with 444 m2 of space, occupies the middle of a 947 m2 plot. The backyard areas have been marginal and in shadow. The home is ready on a sloping excavated terrain and the selection of its setting, under avenue stage, resulted in a slim backyard perimeter, principally shaded, and subsequently darkish and damp.

The elevations of the home have been characterised by advanced and ugly openings, in our opinion. The home windows and doorways on the elevation going through the road have been joined collectively and not using a clear definition, significance and hierarchy. The remaining elevations had a plethora of openings with totally different dimensions and shapes that have been troublesome to justify. Between the road and the home there was a scenic construction in-built concrete which aimed to outline the reception house of the home; it appeared superfluous to us, we demolished it!

The inside had an inspiring variability of ceiling heights: it additionally appeared uncontrolled, however with nice potential. Between the buildings in concrete, there have been suspended iron construction that compromised the unity of the entire inside house. Within the ceilings there have been sq. lanterns within the form of pyramids. Within the kitchen house, with double top ceiling, there was an iron suspended construction of a wall masking which on the similar time molded a spherical ceiling – we demolished it to go away the house pure. The present pool had no definition and its ceramic tiles didn’t match our intentions of lowering it to the necessities.

The finances was very restricted to renovate 700 m2 of constructed space. We began by making a alternative – eradicate all the surplus. We coated the stained and vandalized stones of the ground with a mortar within the pure coloration of cement. We restored the unique stucco of the partitions. We demolished the suspended ceiling buildings that artificialized the house.

The ceiling lanterns have been remade with a round form. We closed with partitions and slabs the place the social house appeared to be open and with out definition. We demolished partitions the place the identical house appeared fragmented and meaningless. We lower out the staircase in order that its form can be aligned with the definition of house given by the partitions.

We opened new doorways on the partitions and closed others. The inside openings are closed with wooden. The structure of the house ought to end result as an excavation carved within the white mass of partitions and ceilings and its gaps closed with obvious wooden surfaces. No gloss. Pure supplies of their true look.
Concerning the facades we took a choice: whether it is potential just one span in every elevation. A glass opening that, from the within, would signify a void, {a photograph} of the surface with out frames or divisions.
