Architecture Hermit Crab.

reflect.

Architecture, as Art, is a manifestation of our identity, an expression of who we are in a certain place and time. If so is not anything crazy to claim that our culture is also reflected in the way we use our buildings and buildings.

The architecture is the means commonly used to create spaces 'flagship', so to speak. The State and its institutions tend to rely on architectural management to highlight in public its institutional character. So do large private corporations, the same gesture, with the same intention.

should we say, of a people that does not give such treatment to public institutions? Salvo, the Palacio de Carondelet, the National Assembly building and some other municipal building outside to capital, our organizations are installed in public spaces that were not originally created for them, but for the extinct dinosaurs of banking wasteful nineties. Reading

then, that the vast majority of ministries are located the headquarters devoid of failed banks? How to read the body responsible for protecting children make similar efforts, which used to be a lot to sell cars? (I mean INFA headquarters in Guayaquil, where facilities were previously SICOCAR Toyota).

And such questioning also works if you look in the opposite direction: Buildings covered by the Guayaquil Stock Exchange and Citibank, are now clothing stores.

... is that perhaps we are like the hermit crab looking for ANYTHING to make your shelter?

Many may claim a use of resources, and it might be a valid justification. But we should note that such use is temporary, transitional, & # 160, and start at some point to draw concrete and metal face of the country and culture we want to be.

miracles do not ask. Nor do I request an Ecuadorian Brasilia. I just think a gradual projection should own buildings for bodies are used and represent all Ecuadorians.

And please! That this gradual creation of new public buildings not repeat the abominable experience building Constituent Assembly Montecristi! National Architecture does not acquire such a name to draw on a ceramic or a poncho! A warehouse is not architecture, worse a meeting!

What A Chest Infection Feels Like

House B, C & D.

Portoviejo, Manabi.

Project under construction.

Here is a sample of our first project under construction, so far in 2010.

initial project sketches.

This is a humble scale project without further appeal. The house is for ladies, and in old age. Therefore, it is defined at the outset that the project should be raised in a single plant.

The land earmarked for the project was the backyard of a house bigger. As garden, the site had some trees planted on the site. It asks us not talemos none. The project must adapt to their presence. We call attention to two trees, a mango and other fruit from China. Its location in the field is controversial, but the turn can be exploited to enhance the quality of the landscape.

sum.

An interesting factor in this project is time. Unlike other cases, this house is designed considering the transition between its first users and subsequent users. There is a considerable generation gap between them. Therefore, it must take into account the needs and requirements of both generations and achieve a friendly coexistence between the two, under one roof.

architectural plan.

The solution is simple, and without recourse to rhetorical maneuvers or too elaborate. The two trees above are used to determine the location of two patios: one as a courtyard, connected to the mango tree, and the other court-connected to the china-fruit tree is designated as a Japanese-style courtyard, which is smaller, but therefore no less important.

courtyard ambience.

The main courtyard serves as an integrator of the project. Except for the kitchen, all other areas are linked to this central space. Thus, it enriches the landscape of the interior and provides natural light throughout the house.

For its part, the Japanese garden is used to enrich the view you have from the kitchen and to a lesser degree, to the sub room. The fact that the kitchen has a patio semi-exclusive highlights its importance within a project that is meant for two elderly ladies. For our grandmothers, the kitchen is more than a place to cook. The act of cooking, especially the act of cooking for the whole family, have in them a ritual. The kitchen must have therefore that assessment. Among its link to the Japanese garden and sizing it makes the kitchen reassess its significance in the project and within the family.

the Japanese garden.

From the front façade composition volume emphasizes the hierarchy of content areas. The living-space-lead project is within the most outstanding volume. It is a well-defined cube, which opens fully on their back, to join the central courtyard with a terrace type "deck" which plays the role of transition element. The front of the hall remains closed quietly, with few openings to prevent entry of vehicular traffic noise in the place. A small balcony is located between the living room and front garden. Instead of railing is designed to place a sunken planter, where they planted the roses's favorite housewife.

In this design, materials corroborate the statement of the geometry. Originally, the concrete has been considered as the ideal material to highlight the relevance of the room. However, for budgetary reasons, never outside the realm of construction, it decided to rule out that option, and replacing it with stone.

Ultimately, this is a modest project, but must at the same time. An unpretentious house, but beautiful, full of scenarios likely to stay in the memory of those who scroll. A small capsule timeless, outside the hustle and bustle that surrounds it, where growing and aging can be something done in a calm and peaceful.
