Un viaje por madrid
Throughout the course, I've completed three projects, progressing from smaller to larger scale.

The first one involves transforming your own room, aiming to understand yourself as a client and your preferences. In my case, I had to adapt to moving houses weekly, so I designed a versatile piece of furniture containing all my belongings. It could transform into a bed, table, drawers, a bar, etc. I designed a supporting wall for adapting it to both rooms, creating a changing domestic landscape.

The second project shifted my mindset and scale, focusing on creating a Madrid villa in Somosierra. I designed a central element: roofs capable of collecting rainwater for autonomy and natural insulation. These roofs created water sheets reflecting the surroundings, connecting with the exterior in a unique way.

For the third project, we were tasked with building a 60-meter tower in the Mazanares colony. I chose to make the tower an infinite staircase, allowing users to define the space's purpose. Each floor, placed at 350mm intervals, serves various functions, creating a diverse user-defined environment. The system allows infinite configurations, providing transparency, lightness, privacy, and panoramic views of Madrid.

Inconvenient as it may seem, this house embraces inconvenience as an opportunity, similar to the relationship between humans and nature, turning inconvenience into a possibility.
