== Introduction ==

[[Image:LR_NB_403-420-Torres-Fira_31.jpg| thumb | left | 100px | Complex]]
Designed by architect Toyo Ito and b720 Arquitectos study, led by Fermín Vázquez, the architectural priorities is to respond to the environment and become the gateway to the city of L'Hospitalet de Llobregat and Barcelona International Airport El Prat.

The project comprises two distinct towers that maintain a subtle dialogue between them.
Although both buildings have a clear contrast in forms, together achieve a harmonious and complementary. The buildings-high 110 each, have a strong symbolic value, and that celebrate the historic Venetian towers give way to the fairground of Barcelona Spain plaza.

== Variable geometry ==

[[Image:LR_NB_403-420_Torres_Fira_2.jpg| thumb | left | 75px |]]
The tower hotel (PB 25) is designed with an organic form, and its perception is changing as the surroundings.

Given the difficulty of building geometry, the exterior has been divided into two skins. The interior is a watertight enclosure based on a mild solution of curtain wall with aluminum and glass panels designed to ensure the acoustic requirements, thermal, and sealing.

On the other hand, the exterior facade is conceived as a second skin that gives texture and variable geometry of the tower. Your skin is made of aluminum tubes independent subject at their ends by hinges to allow the desired torque.

The relationship between spherical, aluminum tubes and the structure that holds the project allows suits and ruled continuously over the entire surface of the facade expressing rotation, translation and growth as it rises in height.

In this way, the tower is divided into three thirds.
The geometry of the first two parts only rotates and moves in different ways, while the third, the plant is deformed and is scaled to increase the area and perimeter of the tower.

== Office Building ==

The office building (PB 22), orthogonal geometry, placed perpendicular to the axis of Plaza Europa (30 ° from the Gran Via) becomes an end to the plaza and dialogues with the ceiling located symmetrically to Across the Gran Via (two octagonal towers perpendicular to this axis).

This fact becomes even more apparent by being cut at the core of the office upon arrival facade, invisible vertical plane, coincident with the main axis of the proposed Plaza Europa.
The perception of twist and translation produced by the hotel is complemented and have an answer in the second office tower.
This is a pure volume at first sight, equipped with a glass curtain wall on the slab set back slightly, but its core vertical red on the side of the floor, also organic, becomes a reflection of the hotel tower .
Between the two towers, and connecting them stands a common atrium.
A large base connecting the two towers and multiplies the effect of the same by the impact of its structure.
Its unique look, along with its 110 meters high and 80 108 sqm total built area of both towers, the project becomes a new milestone in the new Europe Plaza, the city of L'Hospitalet de Llobregat and in a clear reference in the skyline of Barcelona.

== Agenda ==

The project consists of three distinct uses: hotel use, office use and commercial use. The various uses are distributed as follows:

*The hotel program is presented in 28 plants distributed in 25 and 2 PB technical plants with a total built area of 34 688 m² in which are located some 344 rooms. The remaining space is distributed in a hall, a large banquet, meeting and conference rooms and service areas (back / front office and back of house).

*The program office, distributed in PB 22 and two mechanical floors, open floor plans and distributes high structural span of 45 420 m² total built.

*The commercial program is located within the plot aimed at offices, on the ground floor, strengthening the front that marks the park and closing the Plaza Europa commercial ring.

== Introduction ==

Located in Huixquilucan, State of Mexico, the Da Vinci residential tower occupies an area of 2897.13 m2 (31184.70 ft2) and has a slope from front to the back of an average of 17 meters (55.77 feet).

This was just the first hurdle in the design, because a river runs into the back and practically no place to work and the storage of the materials while the water was diverted.

== Concept ==

The project is conceived as a condominium apartment tower vertical, consists of 38 apartments spread over 19 floors, stairwell and three elevators (one of the service) that connect the units with the parking.

The apartments are floor-one to 19 and are prepared only two per floor. They consist of a service area of vertical circulation, with staircase and elevator service, besides the main elevator lobbies distribution downloaded to the apartments.

== Spaces ==

They have three bedrooms with bathroom and dressing room, a dining room space with a guest bathroom, family room, kitchen with pantry space, patio and room service.
On the ground floor is located the main entrance to the tower, as well as vehicular access to private parking and parking for visitors and people with physical limitations.
In total there are 118 parking spaces in basements and 12 more on access level.
From access to both main and service, are located the main lobby and service, elevators and common areas.
In general, these consist of a function room for condominiums, with kitchenettes and bathrooms, a lounge and a spa with swimming lanes, jacuzzi baths and dressing rooms. In addition, the tower has paddle tennis court and pool on the roof exposed to sun deck, bar and recreational spaces. In addition, the Da Vinci Tower features gardens, areas for children and other common areas.

== Structure ==

With regard to project construction system, the building consists of a reinforced concrete structure based on girders, columns and slabs, with two large side castings, and a foundation based on concrete piles up to two meters (6.56 feet) diameter and a depth of 22 meters (72.18 feet).
The whole facade is ventilated and the cladding elements are hung, screwed or stapled, as the facade is completely disassembled.
This will create a barrier thermo-acoustic-weather that makes the most efficient building.
All installations are to the perimeter of the building for easy access and convenience, as well as soundproofing the interior thereof.
In addition, the building has drainage systems, collection, filtering and storage of rainwater for reuse.

Also installed a plant for wastewater treatment, thereby unloading the building clean water to the canyon, and also filters and stores recover some of that water for watering gardens and washing cars.

Moreover, the building has facilities for fire, emergency plants needed to supply if necessary, access control, CCTV, and mechanical ventilation and extraction, among other things.

It is important to note that this entire building is modulated in three dimensions in feet, not to imitate other countries but because all materials are in proportions of feet.

This module based on a four by four feet, which allows the following: the use of better materials (as there is no cost of waste), overlaps in every sense of all the elements, making a work more quickly and cleanly (because there is the need for workshops and inventory adjustments), a lower initial investment (as there is no waste in cut) and a more connected to the ergonomic measures.
This implies stringent controls work, but at the same time a unified action language that allows all participants require less supervision and consultation.

== Materials ==

As for their finishes, high quality materials used in both indoor and outdoor, as well as apparent and precast concrete for building own these characteristics. Were handled in natural granite and tile floors according to their location in the apartments as well as granite, concrete tiles and apparent common use areas.

Within the apartments, walls were handled flat finishes such as plaster ready to receive the final finish, granite in bathrooms and kitchens, and tile in wet areas of services, as well as the apparent finish concrete for common areas .
As for the finished plaster ceiling tiles are used or the use of false ceilings according to the type of location specific.
On the other hand, the decorating front is the same as the materials used, since it is modular prefabricated for this purpose.

== Introduction ==

A work of this nature should encourage introspection and visual peace through a discreet handling of materials and lighting. To create the spiritual environment we are inspired by the architecture of Mastabas of ancient Egypt and the Maya temples at Palenque - buildings created solely for this purpose.

The rules and codes for the construction of such places in the Jewish religion are very strict, therefore, it was advised by a group of rabbis.

== Location ==

The site was developed in a residential context and sought to isolate it completely from the outside, creating a light interior patio. The facade of the place is entirely covered with gray granite.

== Spaces ==

The place begins to receive the visitor with access in the form of triangular tunnel six feet wide and nine high, creating a solemn and monasticism, the darkness is broken to lead to the great hall lit by north of the courtyard it presents a very tall Dracaena marginata and a sculpture of master Saul Kaminer the only piece of art in the place.

Do not use any type of furniture inside, they only placed a floating wooden bench around the great hall. This element is used to hide air conditioning installations, the speakers and interior lighting that adds a touch of drama. Thus the only decoration space presents the play between light and shadow on the different volumes of granite. The roof is covered with a wooden ceiling skylight Cumarú which enhances the floating effect.

== Introduction ==

The office project was designed for a company that develops shopping centers.

== Concept ==

The initial concept was based on the idea of creating functional spaces of modern character. The design intent was to create through language and environment, an architecture that is out to the institutional basis of the assumption of office as a second home where he lives most of the time.

== Materials ==

It managed mixture of natural materials like marble and wood, in contrast to color tempered glass, stainless steel and iron, creating balanced compositions of color and textures; simultaneously a combination of modern and warm

== Spaces ==

Elevators in the lobby of the contrast between the marble and white Calacata steel plates black patina create an effect somewhat contradictory. This access leads to the reception hall which changes to an elegant and warm tones through enlightenment. For this area was used Rosso Levanto marble, wood trimmings and a black glass parrot that floats showing a liquid crystal display that appears and disappears temporarily.

From this zone enter the corridor connecting to other areas that make up the set in which managing different levels with different materials that conceal indirect lighting.

The operational area consists of a large lounge with workstations. Throughout this space was placed a mural alluding to the company's turnover and floor carpet for acoustic damping. It also has cancelería glass that allows light to enter through the private.

At the end of the reception hall is located executive secretarial area, which is enclosed by glass doors etched with geometric shapes, decorated with a painting of Jose Villalobos and engravings Piranessi. This part of the project comprises two executive offices, meeting rooms and a lounge, all with contemporary furnishings, wood trimmings and panels that are combined with plaster ceilings through good fats are hidden in which injections of air conditioning. The velvet curtain complements the environment and giving an elegant residential feel.

In the boardroom were handled the same materials and panels with direct and indirect light through the plates of onyx.

Finally it is noteworthy that these offices have no common space: a lounge bar which provides an opportunity for informal talks and meetings in which contained a metal bar with marble slabs Arabescato.

== Introduction ==

We combined in the same situation the facilities of city life, comfort and connectivity-related, with the instrumental side of country life.
We propose a hybrid scheme in which both scenarios are mixed in spaces equipped to accommodate this interaction (spaces that change of use, thermal comfort, enclosure, etc.).

The availability of selvages result of the clearing of a nearby forest and the expertise of the local workforce in the use of wood determined to build a small house attached to the family of managers, that explores the possibility to extend the height advantage Cover the ends and power optimized over time.

== Draft ==

The project can be understood as an exercise in participation and representation.
The organization of the program in work areas and housing combined response to a principle of negotiation that seeks to promote a more active model of coexistence between the client and close, her children and family of administrators, and between them and the tasks of daily on a farm.

== Construction ==

The construction system is defined by a mixture of materials and technology range of different types that respond to environmental efficiency and energy performance.
We used recycled oak wine barrels for doors and furniture, stone walls of local and standardized systems for lightweight construction.

== Introduction ==
''''' This book is the result of a process that begins with the construction in 2004 of a summer house in the forest of Mar Azul with the following assumptions .'''''

'''BUILDING INTO THE WOODS'''

===''' Propose alternatives that ensure the survival of natural environments'''===

Mar Azul is a place we know for many years for that reason, when in 2004 built the first work we knew we had to intervene in a territory that despite its beautiful scenery never had a legal support to protect this heritage for the greed of which lotean with only one goal: make as land rent.

Nor has a code, understanding the logic of this privileged environment, regulated by solving the gap between the batching inappropriate and the possibilities of building without losing the environmental quality of the site.

This situation described is added as an aggravating the proliferation of a typology "typical house in a fantasy world, which is gradually" domesticating "the forest, still owner of a wild powerful presence. Operate on that site then assume its misalignment meant as a challenge and see, to where, the architects we can make a contribution alternative.

'''The response was the proposal of a minimal architecture resources, both material and formal, not only as an aesthetic choice but as an ethical principle of recovery of a more rational use of the various resources available.
This architecture should be incorporated into the landscape stripped willing to membership, seeking to integrate into the existing reality.'''For this to happen it is necessary "listening" to what the site communicates the first approaches should be free of prejudice regarding the it not only to capture data and therefore tangible and measurable qualifying, but that atmosphere that the place provides and that we can only understand if our eyes are free of preconceptions about it. This means to practice the exercise of "see first time. "

Consider the data, letting those feelings overcome by providing the place and imagine himself as the capitalized project is essential to be able to fuse architecture and landscape.
We had practiced this year (almost as a professional service) Mar Azul vacationing on several occasions, so we evaluated the powerful presence of its forest landscape, the sensations that provide continual changes in time, but we also experienced the microclimate that provides : attenuation of the strong sea winds which occur beneath the trees, these provide constant shade from heat in summer while producing a very wet winter, which for us was crucial in making decisions to When planning, the fact that under the pine trees is reduced significantly the amount of light throughout the year.

We also knew that the forest does not require maintenance other than removing the dry vegetation, if not new species are introduced to break that harmony.

==='''Making what the environment offers'''===

Recognizing this particular climate was a deciding factor (along with the low budget available and zero maintenance in the house) of the aesthetic-constructive decisions that defined the work.
The need to capture the light led to conceive the first work as a "semi-covered" and then resolve it with large panes of glass from the inside make possible to view in all directions and from the outside reflect the landscape, the house blends with it.
The need to accelerate time to implementation of the work and avoid the after we decided to build with exposed concrete. The shadow prevailing on the other hand allowed us to use this material because it provides sufficient thermal protection from spring to late autumn. Preparation for winter was not too important (although of course was intended) because its use is limited because of their status summerhouse.

The insulation waterproof concrete was resolved with a very compact and with a study of how to bound the evacuation of rain water is carried out very quickly.

===''' Use of available resources wisely'''===

The expressive quality of exposed concrete and its resistance and waterproof properties already mentioned, made superfluous any surface finish, achieving a low cost of implementation at the ends without the need for future maintenance.

On the other hand the color and texture of concrete formwork made with wooden planks was a forceful presence and mimetic at a time, allowing the work to be expressed in harmony with the landscape.

'''Is short, an envelope of only two materials - concrete and glass - solves the integration with the landscape and responds to formal issues, structural, functional, finishing and maintenance.'''

With the same approach the resolution of the outdoor activities was the result of performing the operation on the lower atmosphere. It avoided all types of landscaping not only for the convenience of not keeping it to avoid leaving unnecessary limits expressed in a landscape that are not very built, or areas contrasting with the landscape characteristics of this privileged environment.

We like the strong homogeneity of coniferous forest only broken from time to time for some acacia and our pampas grasslands are also the dominant vegetation in the dunes near the sea.

===''' Several houses, some questions'''===

The proposal that our study has been doing in the forest of Mar Azul, as concerned in joining this environment that originates, and so far from the stereotypes of the place, has found great acceptance.
Several commissions of homes with the express request of repeating the same solution constructive and aesthetic value of the decisions on a more relaxed use of housing, lack of maintenance and construction.
This is certainly very gratifying for us but in turn we face a series of questions that become food for thought in each new order. Let them raised is one way to begin to tackle it.

We wonder: If the proposal is submitted to both functional environmental unit how to meet the design requirements, use and maintenance of principals, it is valid to seek a new solution without justification other than to try something different, betting only New?

If instead we choose to continue to bare concrete houses is it licit to produce changes in appearance such as by using a phenolic formwork, manipulating the surface termination with special finishes or use colored concrete? "All these procedures are not purely decorative maneuvers that go against the principles of austerity and simplicity that gave rise to the proposal?

'''Repeat this motion for materiality as a prototype re-worked with every order they belong to the landscape and the different way of living does not it seem logical and ethically correct?
"That would then be the challenge of each new project? "Focus on adapting this prototype to the specific uses of each client and the particularities of their environment? Insisting "increasingly force - assisted by the significance-that what is built there can not break with the unit representing the forest landscape? "Insisting on finding ways to transform every home" nest or burrow (1 )"?'''

(1) term used by the arch. Felipe Uribe to refer our houses of Mar Azul at number 17 of the magazine 1:100)

With these questions face the'''JD''House. "

The 20m x 30m ground on which we should intervene is well forested with pine trees of great size.

Has the peculiarity of his forehead is very high regarding the level of the street, although this complicates the resolution of access to the site, offers the advantage that the house so high, is very little exposed to the eyes of those who walking along the street and it was also possible to imagine that from the inside could be found overlooking the landscape above the neighboring buildings.

Besides the difference in level with the street across his forehead, the lot has a slope diagonally from the bottom to the same of 3.00 m.

== The commission ==

The order of the principal was a house to be used for much of the year, two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one en suite, but with a social area large enough to build spaces for different uses as it is usual to receive many friends.
Also required, sometimes, a social sector in this area could be transformed into place to sleep.

The kitchen should be integrated in the social area and stressed the need for generous outdoor expansions. The total area should not exceed 150 m2.

== Proposal ==

The particular highlight of the lot, privacy resulting from the high of it on the street, overlooking the forest free of neighboring structures and the particular program required, are the issues that are unique to this house with a constructive proposal similar aesthetic the other built by the studio in Mar Azul.

The housing proposal was conceived as two pure prisms, located in a clearing among the trees of different heights, which intersect at right angles and media levels. The significant slope of the land was used to hide part of the program required, thereby reducing the presence of the buildings. With this arrangement of volumes was achieved to give the house a variety of living without losing their independence required to use between them.
All areas of the social area are linked through large openings to the outside terraces resolved with wooden decks and large master bedroom has a terrace deck expansion.

== Functional organization ==

You reach the main floor through a deck raised above the natural terrain, which develops along the longest side of this plant, so that by opening the sliding carpentry achieved seamless integration between interior and exterior.

This level of access is a unique space where different uses are defined by differences of heights produced by the intersection of prisms and sectorisations with concrete walls.
In this way the space is entered with a sector to be in front of the fireplace and with a bench seat intended to be used for a casual meal on a low table.

From this sector can be seen in front of the dining room with its expansion to another terrace, the kitchen to it through a series of concrete walls in addition to resolving the equipment (low countertops, a bar and table), away from direct views the field of kitchen work.
Available to the side of another room, settled about a free salamander, which can be converted into bedroom.

In the center of the plant, the intersection of the two prisms, creating a double height space where the main means both the stairs that lead levels to the bedrooms, such as lighting effects and the vision of the landscape that is obtained by the difference high volumetric or through large openings.

Down and half buried in a very quiet is the general bathroom and a bedroom and takes up isolated from the rest of the house, the master bedroom with private bath that extends outward in a semi-covered terrace.
Both bedrooms are pierced by a pine tree, years, very robust, they did not want to overthrow.

== Construction ==

The house is built with three basic materials: exposed concrete, glass and wood on the outside deck.
Slabs of different volumes and partitions supported by concrete beams seen inverted and finished with a minimum slope to occur quickly rainwater runoff.
H21 concrete was used with the addition of a fluidizing for this mix with little amount of water on setting, be very compact and does not require sealing.

The few hollow brick interior walls are finished in cement grinding, floor cloths is also divided by cement grinding plates of aluminum.

The openings are of dark bronze anodized aluminum. The heating system, since there is no natural gas in the area, was resolved with a system that combines salamander, bottled gas stoves and electric heaters.

== Furniture ==

Except for the beds, couches and chairs the rest of the equipment of this housing is fixed in concrete.
