44 homes in Meco
Three buildings are designed each with a facade to each
of the 3 streets that limit the lot, being the fourth party
with another real estate development. Each building is
independent, having its elevator core separately and two
external stair accesses. Both pedestrian and firefighter
accesses are made through the streets of Denmark and
Poland, while the access and exit ramp of the traffic from
the garage is made through the Avenida de Madrid.
Blocks A and B are conceived as houses in gallery with
two floors below deck.
Some houses are designed on the ground floor with an
outside garden while on the first floor there are duplex
apartments with attic terraces, that is, we move the
exterior spaces from the ground floor to the penthouses
of the upper floors.
Externally, he avoids collective residential images to
create an ambiguous building that links more with a low-
density single-family idea.

This formal and programmatic ambiguity sought, is also
accentuated in the use of materials, where the folded
sheet covers descend the facade turning into vertical
closing and diffusing the functions of the material.
Block C maintains the formal characteristics of A and B
and is subdivided in turn into two buildings separated by
a longitudinal courtyard that acts as a corridor and
communicates, by means of walkways, the two housing
modules.
The whole is completed with underground garage and
storage rooms, and exterior urbanization with swimming
pool.
