A growing family sets out the necessity of enlarge their home of three rooms and 85m2 by adding a second apartment, originally with two rooms and 60m2. The main premise to keep in mind is that the family has to be able to keep on living in their own home during the construction course.
The morphologic analysis of the original apartment emphasize that the night space presented a functional distribution of three rooms and two bathrooms, with minimum circulation area and a suitable size. Furthermore, day space presented an excessive fragmentation and a smaller size. That’s why it is chosen to keep the night space and remodel and enlarge the day space, excluding the kitchen.

C11 HOUSE is the rehabilitation of a family house located in a small village called Bugarra, Spain. The project arises with this fundamental idea: to recover life around the patio and give back a clear environment and its former landscape.
This traditional patio house had been modified through the years and each generation had been adding fragments to this former house. As a result the Mediterranean patio house couldn’t be recognized anymore. The previous succession of enclosed rooms becomes a fluid and changing space, thus allowing cross ventilation and bringing light to the core of the house. The rest of the space is organized by light. All of the house’s rooms are moved to the first and second floor so that the ground floor can be entirely occupied by the family business. The connection with the exterior is emphasized by a series of openings on the walls that frame the views towards the surrounding landscape.
