Lavoro Laboratorio A, Raquel Matos e Judith Quirot

The work its mainly based in 2 distint and main directions that we exploited also with the light. The main idea was to make the most out of the space, creating several public spaces (like the inside court yard) that yould give the work a more deep conection to the surounidngs and the idea of a correlated neighbourhood...However dued to the big number of apartments the construction (mainly the one on the right) got substantialy hier than the other one (that keeps a strict relation with the building next to it). So in our proget the light became a very important theme:How to take the most out of if, not leaving one apartment totaly in the shadow ( and most important how hould we chose the tipology of the apartent, wich rooms would we give drect light and wich rooms take less sun?). 

Analidsing the data we could see that the interior facades of the both buildings didnt catched sun (because they are north orientated and because of the shade of the biger one. this space it had some light but not directly hitting the facades walls. So the answer was in making interior passages that would take the space that it didnt had much light making it a "social space" more comunicative and in a diferent retalion with the city and then turn the apartments to the outsideof this courtyard in the south and east facades. We had turneed the living spaces like the rooms or the living rooms to the outside obtaining direct light and spaces like the kitchen or the bathroom in the interior with a small window just for the crossed ventilation and the entrance of some light.

At the end we choose tho alter the materior of the biguer bilding  to be more conected with the smaler one and make the idea of a continuous blook almost like a rook that then its sliced and opened in small spaces or biger spaces (like the courtyard), havinh a more closed interior and a more opened exterior, also because the outside facades have to be more protected from the sun (mainly the one from the south) ant the inside ones must be opened to the luminosity that might enter. Also We decided to make openings in the roof on toop of the inside passages to provide more light and in the case of the shortest building to make the light go trought the openings in the floor of these passages.
