CDLE housing

The boundary between the public and the private is somewhat blurry today. There is a thin line that is basically defined by the degree of protection we determine as individuals. Having a public life or communicating information exposes one's privacy, but it also puts it at risk, as privacy becomes public.

The design of these homes responds to these concepts to create a refuge that protects its users but also invites them to live in a private space. Following the logic of the complex in which this building is located, we used red partition to create an almost monolithic piece, a bunker that provides maximum privacy but allows light and natural ventilation to enter through some holes - some lattices - that are distributed throughout the building.

Inside, we developed two types of housing, with open and flexible spaces to meet the needs of any user who lives there. The austerity of the elements envelops the inhabitants in a simple and dense way to offer them anonymity within the place. So the architecture goes unnoticed so that users have as much privacy as possible, without the need to interact with the outside world.
