Located in one of the oldest neighborhoods of Granada, Spain, the complex of eight apartments is an experimental project designed for a neighbors’ cooperative. Designed by architect Elisa Valero, each apartment is different, tailored to the needs of the cooperative’s members. For the construction, Valero used an innovative system of the structural element of a double wall that has been recently patented by a professor engineer of the University of Granada. The walls, floors and ceiling are all finished in exposed concrete. Thanks to the great continuous insulation and adequate orientations, the costs of energy has been reduced to almost zero. The exterior of the building was adjusted to the requirements and regulations of Granada’s historic center. The project confronts them through a continuous white wall with no other adornment than the windows, all the same, following the typology of the neighborhood and integrating with it.

Architecture studio Felipe Assadi created ‘Casa Bahia Azul’, a concrete house on the Chilean Coast that functions as a painter’s studio. Working alongside Francisca Pulido and Alejandra Araya, the architects designed a rectangular structure that is embedded into the hillside and features a large floor-to-ceiling window facade for inspiring views of the sea. Additionally, the remote artist studio can only be entered via a narrow staircase, since the architects’ goal was to “leave the user in complete isolation”.

The Transportable House By Felipe Assadi

The architecture studio of Felipe Assadi constructed a transportable cottage which is the prototype of a modular housing project. It’s located in the remote area of Pichicuy in Chile and its signature shape consists of two glass fronts facing nothing but nature. But what is even more interesting is how the house is set up: three bedrooms, two bathrooms and one living room are build from four identical modules of 3,5 x 6 meters. The used materials are iron and pine wood in both exterior and interior. The house is mounted on metal pillars previously arranged in a regular pattern, so that the installation of the modules could even be decided on the ground.

The module measures are determined by the maximum width and height which can be transported on the road without police escort, so that the entire design is derived from these limitations. The architects say: “The project aims to enable the user to configure their own home based on modules and a system that allows connections between these capsules without further instructions.”
