LA CASA DESORDENADA, Home refurbishment in Granada.
A new house is overlapped to a preexisting order. The moldings and structure retain the configuration of the original house, while a new continuous wall of translucent boxes organizes the new life.
In the disorderly encounter between these two orders, a house in which different times coexist and where the limits are not fixed arises.
The new wall contains lighting and storage and orders all the infrastructures of the house in one element.
It unfolds, approaching or moving away from the perimeter, generating diverse spaces; Is not finished, but will be transformed according to the needs of the inhabitants.
The material of the boxes is translucent polypropylene, which sifts the sunlight from one room to another, benefiting the darker ones. They are stackable, making multiple reconfigurations of the house possible.
For the execution of the works, a document containing the necessary construction data was made and placed on a wall. It was modified and expanded during the process, becoming an useful map for the life of the house in the day to day, being completed and ordering content.
At the moment it is in continuous process of modification, coexisting in it construction, past and present experiences and daily objects. This map is a complex and orderly reflection of the house and its new inhabitants.
