该项目涉及对位于圣地亚哥市中心地区的一栋有30年历史的空置建筑进行重建,特别是在普罗维登西亚县,将其改造成一栋有7套公寓的建筑。

The project involves the redevelopment of a vacant 30 years old building located in a central area within the city of Santiago, specifically in Providencia county, which is transformed into a building housing 7 apartments.

问题1_背景
该项目所处的环境是一个经典的建筑类型,连续的外墙,几乎都是在同一个年代,即40年代建成的,在过去的70年里没有任何明显的干预。因此,第一个问题是如何将一个新的作品插入这样的环境中?

Problema 1_ Context
The context in which the project is located is one of classic type of buildings, continuous façades, almost all built in the same decade, the 40`s, without any visible intervention in the past 70 years. So the first problem is how a new piece is inserted in a context like this?

问题2:光线
创造发光的内部空间是客户的唯一要求,这一事实成为所有后续干预决定的触发点。为此,决定扩大外墙的开口,这意味着要改变原有的形态。

Problem 2_ Light
To create luminous interior spaces was the only customer requirement, a fact that became the trigger for all subsequent intervention decisions. For this purpose, it was decided to enlarge the openings in the façade, which meant a change in the original morphology.

预制构件
为了应对立面的变化,我们决定引入两个新的预制件,以应对新的窗户和新的衬里。

Prefabricated Parts
In response to changes in the façades, it was decided to introduce two new prefabricated elements that respond to the new window and to the new lining.

1.-预制窗
对于外墙的新开口,安装了一个钢板框架,它包容了新的窗户并有助于加强修改后的结构。

1.-Prefabricated Window
For new openings in the facades, a framework of steel plates was installed, which embraced the new window and helped to strengthen the modified structure.

2.-砖头涂层
覆盖主立面的材料是贴面砖,它是在原地用普通砖制造的,并将其斜分成四部分,得到一个梯形的片子,它被放置在反方向上一排排排列,以产生新的纹理,参考附近古典建筑的模子和灰泥细节,创造一个联合运动,光和影。

2.-Brick Coating
The material for covering the main façade was veneer brick, which was manufactured in situ from a common brick, and divided diagonally into four parts to obtain a trapezoidal piece, which was placed in rows arranged one above the other in the opposite direction in order to generate new grain, referring to the moldings and stucco details of classical buildings nearby, creating a joint motion, light and shadow.

公寓
设计了两种类型的公寓,单间(35平方米)和较大的双卧室公寓(80平方米)。对于第一种类型,它包含了一个岛的想法,将公共和私人空间分开,并允许从现有的天井获得自然光。对于第二种类型,我们决定使用一个单一的公共空间,整合客厅和厨房,允许光线从不同方向进入。

Apartments
Two types of apartments were designed, studios (35m2 ) and larger size apartments (80m2 ) of two bedrooms. For the first type, it was included the idea of an island that divides common and private spaces and allow access to natural light from the existing patio. For the second type, it was decided to work with one single common space integrating living room and kitchen, allowing the light entry from various directions.
