SHELTER S01
Seeking to build the minimum, the most efficient, a simple architecture that does not require great effort in its maintenance, Shelter S01 was designed.
The strategies to achieve spatial efficiency are: first, eliminating the corridors to gain square meters of circulation; second, furniture design where there is an optimal connection between the different objects, for example in the bedrooms the closets, bedside tables and beds are integrated; third, the floor plan distribution allows spaces to be shared, such as the bathroom, which as a wet nucleus, works for both bedrooms.
With 56 square meters, the program is composed of two bedrooms, a bathroom and a common area with the kitchen, dining room and living room. Its constructive logic begins with its steel structure, and then the volume is closed, the walls are assembled with sip panels and the process is finished with the installation of thermopanel windows and the respective cladding.
For a simple and low-cost architecture, the main facade consists of a modulation in metal profiles, which receive glass panels glued on them. The access has a flap and on the side a lattice contains the water heater. For the cladding of the
lateral faces, alternating cypress was used to give the volemn a ventilated façade.
A roof with only one slope was designed to have a low percentage of leakage and at the same time to avoid the risk of leaks in the folds.
