THE ARTIST’S RESIDENCE PAINTER

The artist residence was a design proposal for a painter who is dedicated to landscape art. It is located in the town of Caguas, near schools, homes and shops. The residence has three levels, and is divided into three modules from the most private spaces to semi-public spaces such as the workshop that connect to the street.

COLLECTIVE HOUSING

COLLECTIVE HOUSING

The collective housing project is located in Santurce.

The building structure represents a demand for various typology of housing. The residential alley as a central spatial element on site shows the differentiated relationship between public space and the private space of the apartment with a threshold formation on different levels. The alley makes it possible to walk through and to come into contact with the surroundings.
