*코워킹 건축스튜디오를 위한 어반 캐빈 [ as-built Arquitectura ] An urban cabin for architects

스페인 건축 디자인 회사, as-built Arquitectura가 디자인한 어반 캐빈은 그들의 건축스튜디오와  코업스페이스를 위한 오피스로 제공된다. 이번 프로젝트 '어반 캐빈'은 안정적인 작업환경 구축을 통한 발전적인 건축작업을 지향한다. 5미터, 16미터의 긴 박공지붕형태는 가로로 긴 백색 우드보드 '업사이드 컬 보드'를 이용하여 완성한다. 이 보드를 통해 작업 진행과정은 디스플레이되며 로비로 부터 유입된 고객들의 시선을유입시키는 장치로 사용된다.

as-built Arquitectura have designed an office for their architecture studio and coworking space in Ferrol, Spain.

In this project we tried to build our “cabin”, a shelter to make us feel comfortable to develop our work as architects. With this aim we tried to arrange a typical ground floor of the XVIII century’s center of Ferrol. A narrow and elongated plot (5×16 m.), with few sunlight hours.

Therefore, we created an “upside down keel board”, a white long structure to cover us, where our work will be developed. This structure is displaced of the façade, creating a lobby to receive clients and to gaze at the cabin. Here, a tree-shape performance welcomes us. It is made with geometric white plastic glasses. In reference to The Tree as the primary human’s shelter against Nature, which will be transformed in the future into The Cabin…

The whole container (walls and ceiling) was painted in dark grey, in contrast with the stark whiteness of the floor and the lacquered MDF surfaces of the cabin. Indirect ambient LED lightning provides clearness to the, initially, dark space. Besides, this allows cutting down the energetic waste.

 All the construction is made with dry joint, with a system similar to the American’s “balloon frame”, due to a framework of red pine wood (70×100 mm.) covered (and braced) with MDF strips (19×150 mm.) white lacquered.

    The walls in the rest area (out of the shell of the cabin) are coated with a warmer material, OSB panels (16 mm.), in contrast with the dark grey walls and ceiling. All the wiring is hidden behind the cabin.
