The project has been finished in 2018, it is situated in a centric neighborhood of Madrid. The program consists of a mixed use of shop space and exhibition of natural cosmetics and wellness and a massage with an added a hammam room.
Due to the nature of the program, our imaginary is structured by natural materials and warm and relaxed atmospheres. Therefore, we will use bamboo for floors, and bamboo poles as a second skin in the natural and plastered walls.
“E-domus” are new generation homes, with a conceptual project worked from technology, which makes a concrete way of living with the use of renewable energy, achieving greater sustainability. ”
The architect José María Carrillo Rodríguez, sensitized by sustainability and the environment, is involved in the creation of new homes for young people (or not so young), so that they can have an opportunity to access a luxury single family, but without costs elevated, within one of the residential areas of the municipality of Boadilla del Monte in Madrid, between two of the high standing urbanizations of Boadilla, such as “Las Lomas” and “El Olivar del Mirabal”.
The project begins with the premise of transforming the previous spa into a new restaurant of two floors that speaks up about the old and Italian restaurant aesthetics in the ’60s.
The elements and material that have been used to get the beforementioned aesthetic were: First, the entire floor of the existing stone has been maintained, giving the project a relaxed and dense atmosphere. In contrast to the floor, the walls have been designed with solid tones in light blue. In some cases, the surfaces have been covered with a tinted pine “skin” with a marked zigzag texture. These elements, added to the lighting, that consists of suspended blown glass lamps, and the LED backlight, and abundant vegetation in flowerpots, create a wide, relaxed and dense space.
PROTON THERAPY is at present the safest and most advanced radiotherapy technique there is to treat certain types of cancer. It involves generating a beam of protons to radiate the tissue affected by a tumour. Applied in specific doses, the protons can act with precision inside the tissue, achieving greater antitumoural activity and causing less damage to the healthy tissue. For this reason, this technique is appropriate for paediatric patients and on certain kinds of tumour.
IDOM has been involved in the design and construction of the first oncology treatment centre based on proton therapy ever built in Spain, which will start to treat patients at the end of 2019.
Located in the historic neighborhood of Las Letras, Madrid and surrounded by other iconic buildings, one can find the1852 house-palace where Cool Rooms is situated. It is number 34 of the well known calle de Atocha.
Inspiration comes for the idea of selling a dream; this is, turning the palace into the best of our homes.
This project responds to the need for renovating the Mahou concesión stands in the “Sports Palace” of Madrid, and it is tackled from the respect to the building, a versatile space that hosts from concerts to congresses or basketball games. Our proposal intends to preserve the current brand identity without competing with the industrial style interiors of the space, which are designed with cold and resistant finishes.
The original project for this 1960’s building follows the standard typology for high-traffic spaces like stadiums and large venues, with a ring-shaped circulation scheme that allow reaching the main stage from different levels. It is in these corridors or “streets” where most of the renovated spaces are located, while others are directly inside the stage. This entails different design considerations depending on each stand location and the circulation and public flow of the different events.
The project consists in building a house inside of a house, which means that it is more similar to the process of building a single-family house than an interior rehabilitation. This is because it has its own structure, enclosures, and installations.
In its original state was an open loft located in the centre of Madrid, built in the late XX century. The structure is load-bearing walls and a structure of wooden pillars and a horizontal structure made by Catalan vault system.
Aberrant Architecture proposes the creation of an installation devoted to free play in Intermediae. Inspired by the architectural language of the great Dutch playground designer Aldo van Eyck (1918-99), Landscape for Play is a leisure-based proposal that shifts the shapes of the surrounding city to an interior space. To the question of how we can transform the urban space through play, Aberrant Architecture replies with structures, shapes and colours that invite children of all ages to use this new place in an imaginative way. The resulting interior landscape is composed of follies, crevices and different elevations which, although they make up a fantastic territory that Registered Office: 145-157 St John Street London EC1V 4PY. Registered in England No.06483693 can be used by the communities that come to Intermediae each day, don't impose rigid restrictions in terms of how people must behave. This flexibility also means that the playground can be used as a setting for a range of activities during the months when it will be open.
The project involves the complete rehabbing of a flat in the southwest of Madrid. A young person decides to renovate the family home where he grew up and lived for many years to turn it into his new home and professional office. The project starts off with a review of memories, experiences and life lessons, to rethink the present and imagine a future for this new stage of life. The challenge lies in designing a space that facilitates, accelerates and accompanies this process; to devise a sort of home catalyst, located in the heart of a residential building in the neighborhood of Las Aguilas in the district of La Latina.
