The buildings to be intervened upon have the particularity of being at the end of a block, with three facades, and are situated within an urban structure that needs consolidation. Both buildings appear to be in a seemingly reasonable state of conservation, but with visible maintenance deficiencies.

Sketch

The joint intervention will enable the creation of a single building that completes the block, designing spacious and comfortable apartments.

In a clear intention to preserve the memory of the place, it was decided to maintain the facades of the two buildings, integrating them into a new compositional structure of the elevations. To allow a reading of different eras and to create some differentiation, a subtle marking in the openings of the new floors was chosen, and for the topmost crowning floor, a different materiality, zinc, was used.

On the only facade where intervention was possible, an undeniably contemporary solution was chosen. This creates a hierarchy between the pre-existence and the expanded floors, emphasizing visual and aesthetic uniformity.
