House in Madreselva by David Olmos Arquitectos
Located in a small coastal town of Salinas, in Asturias / Spain, this contemporary single family house has been recently completed by David Olmos Arquitectos.
Description
This is a family residence built on the coastal town of Salinas, Asturias, on a small trapezoid- shaped lot located between two different residential zones, a townhouse complex and a single-family residence.
The project tries to harmonize these conditioning circumstances by following the property lines on the townhouses on Madreselva Street, and also the clearance that is customary in the case of single-family residences facing the wide-open space of the Deva Park.
The reponse to this is a home with asymmetrical ?L? shape, which generates an indoor space with the main living areas being open facing the most adequate direction. The more private pedestrian access is provided through Madreselva Street, in the direction of the downtown area of Salinas, where the beach is located. Having a large family in mind, the lower floor has the day areas: home office, living room and kitchen-dining combo, with massive floor-to-ceiling windows. On the upper floor, are four bedrooms, which open up to a sliding or “fenêtre lounger?, that interrupts the volumen and breaks the edges of the ?L?. This window is topped by an overhang canopy which protects from the sun in the summertime as well as frames the park views.
The exterior turns the roof into an extension of the façade, using zinc...
