The project develops the construction of 30 homes, premises without specific use and a garage with a capacity of 68 parking spaces. It is a new building that maintains the existing façades of Còrsega Street and Caputxins passage, while all the remaining construction is demolished.
A maximum volume is defined in six floors and a series of voids are practiced which at the same time allow a more appropriate encounter with the neighbouring building.
It is a new building with façade maintenance where the new uses of the building are residential on the ground floor, premises without a defined use facing Còrsega Street on the ground and mezzanine floors, and parking on the basement floors. Due to the characteristics of the volumetrics, the 30 homes are distributed in a total of eight different typologies.
The lower and upper floors are defined by two premises facing the street (one of them cornering the Caputxins passage), the main entrance to the building with the caretaker's area and facilities rooms, and three duplex with façade and garden at the back; all of them with living room, kitchen, double room, two single rooms and bathroom. Returning to the initial state of the building, the service access door located in the central opening of the passage is cancelled.
The first and second floors have an identical distribution, with six homes per floor and access to a common central corridor with two elevators and the protected staircase, which divides the floor between the homes that face the street and those that face the block’s patio. There are two central courtyards, shared by two houses each, and the other two houses face the passage.
On the third floor, where the first setback appears on the façade, five homes are articulated. The same program is maintained but without the terrace on the fourth floor.
And in the fifth one, the recesses appear on the main façade, transforming one of the homes into a study. The other house will be a little smaller and the other three will remain with the same program.
The covered floor houses the enclosures for installations, the solar panels, air conditioning devices and an area of common use for the neighbours designed as a solarium terrace.
The three basement floors that make up the building house 68 parking spaces, 30 storage rooms, stairs and spaces for installations. Storage rooms and 15 parking spaces are located on the first floor, while the remaining parking spaces are distributed respectively in 26 and 27 spaces in floors two and three.
