The project is initially considered by understanding its immediate environment and its relationship with the city and the landscape. On a city scale, we understand Rubí as a city the growth of which has been supported by a geographical line formed by the stream and the foot of a small set of mountains. The project is located on this line but not immersed in a consolidated urban terrain, but at that point where the line gives up its firmness to become incorporated into the landscape. In this way, it invites you to direct your gaze towards the green of the stream.
On the scale of the site and the immediate surroundings, it is punctuated in a plot of an industrial estate, where it forms part of a row of warehouses. With respect to this row, the offices are located at the end, giving themselves immediately in contact with the trees and the green. Once again, the look at the landscape is reaffirmed. Considering that the programme of the project is offices in the middle of an industrial estate, it is proposed to enhance through the elements of the façade to avoid the gaze facing the buildings and all the implicit activity of the estate. It is interesting to look at the landscape.
It is proposed to work with different flat and non-flat prefabricated parts. The relationship between these pieces is what will allow us, not only the existence of different types of void, but also to control and direct the visions. At the same time, it allows us to differentiate systems for each façade, according to the needs of each one and the proximity to the landscape.
The arrangement of these non-flat parts in plan establishes an exterior-interior relationship, incorporating small exterior spaces into the offices and projecting to the central core. The floor plan starts from the core where all the services, community and private, of each office are accumulated. The treatment of this core is worked on as another part of the façade, as a public part, so that the space proper to the offices wanders between two skins, which due to their own thickness become filters, filters between interior and exterior, and between public and private.
