| Sumario: | [EN] The house is probably the architectural area where the relationship between space and body becomes more intimate and personal. Thus, the domestic space and its limits are the first place where the body develops and our senses expand. Among the different types of housing, the single-family townhouse is, due to its wide acceptance in the landscape of our cities, an interesting field where aspects such as materiality, ways of living or the relationship between house and city come into play. In this game of dialogues between the body, the house and the city that is XI House, concrete in several variations plays a fundamental role. We go from the precast white concrete lattice (which is nothing but a membrane that regulates the relationship between the house and the city) which creates in the interior a subtle play of chiaroscuro, a calm atmosphere and oblivious to the hustle and bustle of our days to the cast-in-place concrete of the semi-basement walls and the microconcrete of the stairs. This project we present here is an architectural reflection about this typology, the different uses and applications of concrete and the inflections of light in it. |
