The project consisted of updating and adapting an existing building to the present, to new materials, to new ways of life.

The existing building is the result of the sum of two houses between a rammed earth party walls. They are buildings that respond to the typology in La Plana de Lleida area featuring a rectangular plot that is around 5 meters wide and 15‐30 meters in length.

The main approach of the project was to empty the existing building in a selective way in order to attain the project aims and provide for the functional needs of the clients.
