该项目旨在通过巴塞罗那Eixample的传统住宅类型来强调所有我们认为有价值的事物。建筑中的房间保持了19世纪末期的当地建筑特征，并布置以特定类型的植物。建筑师希望通过尽可能少的干预来实现既有公寓的功能优化。规则的网格系统使这些房间可以根据需要来进行改变。

This project aims to stress everything we considered valuable from the typological housing tradition of the Barcelona’s Eixample. Thus, the type plants are formalized following the distribution of equal (or almost equal) rooms that traditionally characterized the housing blocks of the late s. XIX in the area. A characteristic that has allowed the apartments to modify the way they have been used over the decades without substantial architectonical changes. A seemingly rigid system has allowed nevertheless to change their use in the course of time.

▼建筑外观，exterior view

基于既有的空间类型，该建筑被打造为由110个房间构成的完整系统。每套公寓都可以进行适度的扩大或缩小，也可以调整房间的数量，以便迎合未来的使用需要。相似的房间尺寸消除了空间的层级划分以及功能上的预先设定，从而为建筑赋予灵活性。

Departing from this typological condition, the building has been designed as a system of 110 rooms which can be used as desired. Each apartment could be potentially expanded or reduced, adding or subtracting rooms, in order to answer to future needs of its inhabitants. With that flexibility in mind, rooms are similar in size eliminating any type of spatial hierarchy and program predetermination.

▼房间原型，room prototypes

建筑每层包含4套公寓，每套5个房间，共计20个房间。这些房间彼此相连，因而不需要设置走廊。每套公寓以厨房为中心，卧室和客厅等空间则分布在厨房周围。浴室的位置如同供给站一般，使这种灵活性进一步成为可能。

Each floor contains 20 rooms, and initially, each floor is divided as a set of 4 apartments of 5 rooms each where rooms are connected among them, so no corridor is needed. A kitchenette is placed in the middle acting as the centre, while the other rooms can be used as bedrooms, living rooms, etc. This flexibility is able due to the position of bathrooms, where all installations are placed as points for supply.
