Article source: Díaz y Díaz Arquitectos The objective of the project is the construction of eight terraced houses in line and a single-family housing isolated with a common space that unifies these buildings. The important topographical elevation presented by the plot is undoubtedly one of the biggest conditions of the project.  Image Courtesy © Díaz y Díaz Arquitectos

At the entrance to the garage, the level is smaller, accessing the garage without the need for a ramp, and at the entrance to the house, the level is greater than and equal to the level of the Street. On the other hand, this unevenness allows us to design a private outdoor space for each house consisting of paved and landscaped terraces at different heights and turned south that solve this slope and give privacy to each house. The implementation of these houses is done considering the conditions of the land and also solving the different orientations of each of them.

This area is understood as a common space where community members relate, both in summer and winter, bringing something else to its inhabitants. The row houses set up a linear element, with a joint reading and with the same distribution of uses on the floor: garage in the basement, day area on the ground floor, and night area on the first floor. Besides, in cases where possible, the houses have a solarium on the roof.

In this way, the garages will be individuals and with unique access. The day area (ground floor) will be a constant reading, robust, and will create a massif base thanks to the prefabricated concrete that makes up its facade. The night area (first floor) always has the same scheme of distribution: the main bedroom south facing and the second bedrooms north facing. The isolated house presents the same distribution scheme on the floor and the same aesthetic of façade and closure; in this way, a homogeneous set is generated throughout the plot.
