*전원의 모던한 벽돌 하우스 [ Estudio BaBO ] MYP House

반응형

전원주택은 도심의 주택보다
외부로 열린 공간을 계획하여 같이
호흡하도록 만드는 것이 중요하다.
특히 주변에 파 골프코스와 인접해 있다면
아름다운 뷰를 감상하고 즐길수 있도록
공용공간의 배치를 신중히 고려해야 한다.
여기 보이는 벽돌하우스는 수직의 공간구성보다
수평적공간 분할을 하여 효율적인 공간활용을
보여준다.

보이는 외형 또한 L자 형태의 저층부와
상층부를 분리하여 그 특징을 잘 나타내어준다.
저층부에 위치한 거실은 2개층을 오픈하여
개방감을 확보하는 동시에 전면 낮은 월로
구분되어지는 중정으로 열리도록 계획하여
외부와 관계성을 맺도록 계획되었다.

모던하면서 심플한 외형과
단정한 파벽돌의 마감은
전원주택이 갖고 있는 열린공간과
맞다면서 주택의 그레이드를 올려준다.

우리 주거의 가치척도가 아파트에서
요 근래 단독주거로 옮겨오고 있다.
그것은 주거가 단순히 투자의 상품 또는
학군에 등에 의한 지리적 특징이 아닌
삶자체의 질의 향상을 원하는
사람들의 패턴이 변화하고 있다는 것을 보여준다.
이렇게 사람들의 시각이 다양한 공간을
원하는 패턴으로의 변화가 건축가, 디자이너의
자리를 만들어주는 중요한 역활을 한다.
건축가, 디자이너는 집장사가 아니고
사람의 삶에 도움을 주는 어드바이저이기
때문이다.

 Argentine architects Estudio BaBO have stacked one brick box upon another to create this house next to a golf course in Buenos Aires.


Brick walls with square openings project out from the building at ground floor level, partially screening outdoor areas.



Bedrooms and bathrooms occupy an L-shaped floor-plate on the first floor, enabling ground floor living areas to be double-height.



The clay brick used is sourced from nearby town Chacabuco.



MYP House

The project consists of a single family suburban house placed within a corner plot in a traditional Country Club in the Pilar area, Buenos Aires, Argentina. With a surface area of 1100m², the site forms part of a new extension of the Club, resulting in an almost inexistent urban context, deprived of both neighboring houses and grown vegetation.


The only significant influence surrounding the plot is the adjacent par three golf course. The plot is completely flat and there is no physical limit between the golf course and its northeastern border, resulting in a magnificent view which also coincides with the best sun orientation.



The internal regulation of the Country Club, including a strict limitation to the buildable area and its limits regarding the neighboring buildings, generates a very large urban sprawl with lots of space between houses.



This results in large green open spaces, enabling you to connect with the natural surroundings, a characteristic not common in other suburban developments such as this one. On the other hand; these same characteristics, combined with the client’s desire to use the maximum area allowed, often result in a very compact rectangular volume, sometimes dull and devoid of expression.



This is the main reason why most of the houses in this neighborhood tend to concentrate on the outer spaces (so common in this type of climate) by using lightweight structures attached to the main volume, thus compromising their own formal logic.



These strong factors, existent in most of the houses within this area, are taken as the principal ideas for our project. We choose to exteriorize the volume, instead of hiding it, exploiting all of its possibilities. We first, expose it, and then apply different articulation mechanisms to create a variation of spatial relations between the different factors present in the projects program.



We slice the volume horizontally dividing the daily functions from the private ones. Then we cut, rotate and translate the lower walls so as to gain contact with the exterior at ground level, without giving away the required privacy.



One of these articulations creates an entrance courtyard towards the western corner. Its perimeter walls provide privacy, protect the interiors from the harsh western sun, and extend inwards generating a programmatic and symbolic promenade.



The other articulations protect the main and exterior areas from the surrounding street and provide room for an outer kitchen and a service patio for the basement.



The program for this house is that of any other of its type, it is the treatment of the limits between each space which adds complexity to the final plan. It was established from the first moment the importance to make a separation between day and night activities.



The ground floor plan is dedicated to daytime activities. Its plan is open so as to connect with its exterior surroundings, at the same time a conscious effort is made to conserve the privacy of its inhabitants and also retain the buildings domestic scale. There is a fluid connection between its spatial units, the kitchen and the guest toilet (being the only closable rooms).



An open staircase dividing the living and dining room, has a balustrade made up of thin metal bars which seemingly open up as the observer moves around its lower space; a piece of furniture specifically placed at a change of floor level also allows for a one-way visual connection to be made between the two spaces. These are some of the strategies implemented to induce a playful separation between spaces.



The outdoor terrace is integrated as a special unit within itself, with the same length, width and double height of the living area, this important feature becomes the most utilized space in the house. Large retractable glass doors separating this area from the living room allow for the two spaces to be unified and promote use throughout most of the year.



The outward projection of the lower brick walls, together with its rectangular openings, guarantees privacy while generating ambiguous limits. This insinuates a fluid succession between interior and exterior.



Apart from the visual connection between the linear hallway and the living area (in double height) the first floor plan is formed by a simple succession of bedrooms and bathrooms.



All of the rooms extend themselves to the exterior through big glass openings, each room towards a different site. It is intended to individualize the bedrooms by providing them with a different scene and light quality. This also generates the increase of mass in all of the upper floor facades, giving the house its monolithic character.



Natural light has been essential in this project. The ground floor plan has been designed so as to avoid direct sunlight. The indirect light provides the rooms with a very particular quality, uniform and constant throughout the day. Together with the double height ceilings and cross ventilation the necessity of using a mechanical cooling system can be avoided.



With regards to the materiality of the project, the decision was made to repeat the use of the Chacabuco brick, seen in the club house and its surrounding buildings, to create a dialogue between the project and its environment.



The module of the brick is present in the project both in the general proportions of the top volume and as the direct articulator of the relationship between mass and void. On the main level, clear granite is chosen for both interior and exterior floors and a plaster finishing is used on the interior walls throughout the house. Wood is present in the two leveled ceilings of the gallery. All windows are in an anodized black, a colour shared with the exterior wall surrounding the kitchen.



The project aims to represent a synthesis of its contextual conditions. On the one hand, the already limited constraints of an isolated single family house with its requirements, such as connections, privacy and security in this non-permeable area. And on the other hand, the acceptance of the existing constructive pressures as an enabling and legitimizing design strategy.
