The project is a renovation of an existing house from the 70s, on the beachfront of the Mediterranean Sea, adapting it to the requirements of its new users and its environment.
The original building lacked any architectural interest but had a focus on energy efficiency. All the effort used in the initial construction is utilized, maintaining the structure and a large part of the house’s envelope. In this way, the environmental impact of the project is reduced and urban “waste” is recycled. With this work, Martin Lejarraga Architecture Office continues to opt for architectural recycling as one of the most effective ways to take care of the planet from the point of view of architecture (UN Objectives 2030, 11-12).
The project was conceived just when our bodies and after a few days our minds were confined. Could this new house hold up another confinement? We wonder. This will be perhaps from now on the new question to project. Because if an architecture is good because it is flexible, bright and healthy, it will endure confinement and any future situation. Because it will be adaptive, evolutionary and caring.
