21 Public Housing Units

Sant Llorenç Savall, Spain

Two polygonal blocks solve a slope naturally. It is a social housing project with low budget. 21 apartments and 21 parking places are required. The slope is extreme -10 metres altogether- and it is all rock. Hence, the lineal scheme -very used for this type of dwellings- is not an option. The plot is just on the edge of the town, where the woods start and it is just by the side of a big building accessed throw a long exterior staircase to be kept
