project team: a10studio, Mariano Arias-Diez, Katharina Köeber.

The project consists of a residence designed for a developer with the intention of selling it later to an "average luxury real estate customer".

We ordered the project information through a layered approach of simultaneous and overlapping events, applied as a method to maintain independence, fluctuation and evolution of the various elements and components needed. The elevations also have an overlay of different treatment facades that become and get understood as in one.

To break and join at the same time the volume, we required a diagonalization process, this is, a process whereby the continuity of space would travel in its entire section, thanks to this, the interior is understood both as a whole and at various levels, producing a connection between its different levels through voids which run, connect or link, in both sequential and topological way.
