Housing building in Manresa Posted: 29 May 2015 04:41 AM PDT We will return to Barcelona, where the other day we show you the renovation of an apartment in the famous Eixample area, to talk to you about an interesting project in the town of Manresa: the Housing building. It’s a construction of 44 social houses, a shop and a parking lot that is part of the plan of urban renewal of the old town of Manresa, which had as its main objective, regenerate and revitalize the historic center of the city, an area that was the limit of the abandonment. The design of this building, by Lola Doménech and Antonio Montes Gil, has had as its main objective creating a decent social housing according to the premises of minimal maintenance required by the City Council and responding to the required criteria of sustainability and energy efficiency. Taking advantage of the different levels of the streets and the square existing is established a direct relationship between the performance of the building and the urban environment. Furthermore, dwellings are resolved with cross-ventilation and are developed mainly on three floors, reaching 4 plants in the South end. Parking, concentrated in three-storey semi-underground, extends below the plaza level. Using the slope generated between the street and the square is designed a ventilated facade of vertical slats of galvanized steel that ensures natural ventilation of the parking. In order to accommodate a wide range of users are projected different typologies of houses with areas of 45, 60,70 and 90 m2. On the ground floor are concentrated some facilities spaces, commercial premises with façade to the square and homes duplex just level with the inner courtyard. In the East, South and West facades a cumshot Gallery around the perimeter, bounded by an enclosure of aluminum slats, allows House a terrace ventilated and protected for each dwelling. This enclosure guarantees the solar and visual protection of facades most exposed to the Sun. The post Housing building in Manresa appeared first on Belleinterior.
