在21世纪的第一个十年和2008年经济危机之前,马德里的郊区被高度开发,其住宅能力被最大限度地利用。严格的城市法规迫使新建筑考虑一定比例的底层只具有商业或办公用途,尽管当时没有兴趣或商业活动。许多位于住宅区内的商业空间从未投入使用,十多年来几乎一直被遗弃。DV办公室是一个旨在激活现有城市层的项目,其混合方案主要致力于办公设备,但提供了一个中性配置,允许空间在未来被改造。该项目的初始状态曾经是两个400平方米的单位,被遗弃了十多年,需要划分为16个单位,供自由职业者和小公司使用。为了提供隐私并避免常见的城市层面的摩擦,双层外墙就像一个视觉过滤器,调节外部气候条件,并为现有建筑提供一个统一的外观。

During the first decade of the 21st century and before the 2008 economic crisis, Madrid’s suburban areas were highly developed, and their residential capability was exploited to its maximum allowance. A strict urbanistic regulation forced new constructions to consider a percentage of ground floors to have only and exclusively commercial or office purposes, despite there being no interest or commercial activity at that time. Many commercial spaces located within residential blocks were never put in use and remained almost abandoned for more than a decade. DV Offices is a project that aims to activate the existing urban layer with a hybrid program mostly dedicated to office equipment but providing a neutral configuration that allows the space to be transformed in the future. The initial state of the project used to be two 400m2 units abandoned for more than a decade that needed to be divided into 16 units for freelancers and small companies. To provide privacy and to avoid the common urban level frictions, a double layer facade acts like a visual filter regulating the outside climate conditions and providing the existing buildings with a unitary appearance.

考虑到这些单元是两个住宅区的一部分,有必要提供一个尊重现有的解决方案,作为原始结构的合理方案来划分它们,使用一个1米的模块来组织外墙和平行隔断,将16个单元与现有支柱对齐。主立面的穿孔钢板与附近的大自然相互作用。在春天和夏天,当树木开花和长满叶子的时候,树木的阴影是巨大的。同时,在冬天,影子是尖锐而薄的,允许阳光穿过办公室的主要空间。客户坚持要保留一个与外部相连的空间,以建立一种不仅是视觉上的,而且是物理上的关系。建筑物的街道层通常没有与外部的过渡,边界是由入口处定义的。这就是为什么在展示双立面的同时,还展示了一个过渡空间,可以作为一个露台或中间的空间使用。

Considering these units part of two residential blocks, there was a need to provide a solution that respects the existing, being the original structure a rational scheme to divide them, using a 1-meter module to organize the façade and parallel partitions that enclose the 16 units aligned to the existing pillars. The perforated steel plate of the main façade interacts with nature nearby. The shadow of the trees is huge in spring and summer when they are blooming and full of leaves. Meanwhile in winter, the shadow is sharp and thin allowing the sun to pass through to the office’s main space. The client insisted on preserving a space linked to the outside to establish a relationship not only visual but physical as well. Building’s street levels usually don’t have a transition to the exterior, the border is defined by the entrance. That is why the double façade is displayed along with a transitional space that could be used as a terrace or space in-between.

为了将所有的设施和装置与现有的结构隔离和联系起来,进行了近一年的全面整修。提供了一个浴室和一个小厨房,以实现灵活性和更舒适的环境和工作流程。新的方案和被动气候解决方案构造了整个项目,同时它也融入了现有的环境。

A full refurbishment was done for almost a year in order to isolate and link all the facilities and installations to the existing structure. A bathroom and a small kitchen were provided to allow flexibility and a more comfortable environment and workflow. New programs and passive climate solutions structure the whole project, while it is integrated into the existing context.
