The project is located in the city of Gijón, just in front of the industrial harbour, enjoying great views on this and the city. The plot is in clinated towards the port, and is separated from the access road by a jump of about 4 meters high, which is perforated to cause the main entrance.

The Olimpia Theatre occupies the site of the former Olimpia Hall, a triangular shaped block in the city centre. This block -of great urban presence- presides the Lavapiés square: a priority area within the Municipal Renovation Plan for the Madrid Central District with a dense urban fabric.
We enter a placeas a story: we get used to it, we a ppropriate it.In the heart of the island of Menorca, protected from the a gressions of the modernity and the mass tourism, there is a place over hanging the harbor where stands a palace from the XVIII century.Can Faustino is an invitation to dream and to the peace of mind.
The project tries to emphasize the characteristics of a double-oriented penthouse. It is designed as a longitudinal space open at both ends producing a visual communication between two facades.
Mobile screens modulate gradually this connection and allow different configurations for this space.

The house is located on a sloping plot with a landscape of distant horizon none other than Madrid’s western mountain range viewed from Camarines. At ground level it doesn’t appear to be anything special, but as we go up we feast our eyes on a panoramic view of the urban landscape of the east of Madrid. From the four towers to the left to the Madrid tower to the right. Beautiful, and curious also. Logically the more public parts of the house will be at the upper levels to frame and enjoy the stunning views.
This century-old dwelling is located just around the corner from Els Jardinets de Gràcia, in a building with a double façade tipology, one facing a quiet street, the other oriented towards a sunny interior block courtyard.
Cepsa is one of Spain’s largest industrial group operating for over 80 years. In recent years it has become a major player in the global energy market. Yet it is their petrol stations that are the crucial touch-point that connects the brand with society.
The relationship between parents and children is in flux for the coming years: from total dependency to independency. Then, how do you organize a house and its different rooms if the relationships between family members are constantly shifting?According, the house organizes itself ambiguously between one family nucleus and two independent areas expressed to the exterior by a diagonal cut that divides the cubical mass into two sub-masses.
The good orientation and the view across the city of San Sebastian make Marichulegui villa a privileged place to live.
The house places, almost instinctively, the main spaces oriented diagonally looking for the sights to the Concha bay which are encased between two neighbour villages. To place the maximum possible number of spaces whit this condition, leads to group, apparently in a disordered way, tightening in the narrow front of the plot, as if they were the heads of a children group that who want to look through a little window at the same time. So, the interior space keeping its fluid and unitary condition, creates various areas where the nearest references disappeared in favour of the far sight.
The U-House is a project started in 2009 that has been built more slowly than expected, and therefore, as it could not be in another way, includes good and bad things of this particular “tour” extending over 6 years.
