墨西哥 León 年轻夫妇的实用家居

Architect：Cubo Rojo Arquitectura

Location：León, Guanajuato, Mexico; | ;

Project Year：2015

Category：Private Houses

The project is based on the client's desire of a house that is in keeping with the lifestyle of a young couple who seeks the practical, the functional and the aesthetic. For that reason it is a house that is lived in a single level for a more comfortable and short transit inside the house.

The house has only 100 m2 of construction but has a very generous distribution, the house is separated by a central axis that takes the form of a corridor that divides the public or social area from the private and intimate.

The social part is a diaphanous space that allows different uses and furniture arrangement according to the user. In this part there is a greater height to compensate for the possible stay of a greater number of people and to give it a public character, as well as playing with a difference of heights in slabs to allow the passage of indirect light.

The intimate and service part has a lower height, in relation to a more human scale. A direct relationship with the natural space is also sought in the house, that is why it has 3 courtyards that give this interior-exterior relationship to the whole project but also brings light and air.

The house does not seek to compete with the scales of its immediate surroundings because it is surrounded by buildings of 2 levels or more. The scale of the project corresponds more to a scale closer to the user and the passerby.

For the façade, basic and timeless materials such as concrete, wood and vegetation were sought. Well, the house was not supposed to be the new one in the neighborhood, but it seemed that it had always been there. The openings to the street are only those necessary for the house to breathe and light up, taking care of the interior privacy.
