House Koster  Curacao Cas grandi

 

Introduction

The house presents the sense of architecture as a material translation of ideas and strongly expressive message in a low budget house. The architect in this work play with a special relationship between the air and light, and put in the center of the project's continuity with the natural elements and landscape. The idea of architecture that inevitably includes elements such as context, the role and composition, but exclusive and essential at a formal level.

Location

It is located in an area of high density in Cas grandi Curacao.

Concept

Responding to the request from owner of total independence and complete privacy from the street and neighbours. We created an enclosure, dividing in three areas: sleeping area, living area, pooldeck. The geometry is characterized by a strong essentiality, also evident in the glazed surfaces and in the white coating. The most characteristic factor is the strong presence of nature, water mirrors that reflect vegetation, the transparency of glass and white walls. Furthermore, in order to create continuity between nature and construction, including exterior and interior concrete extends throughout the plant, continuing beyond the windows. They are strong connections between the closed and open space between the white and light, between the built and natural data.

Spaces

In plan, the house forms three units. The central space is 4 meter high and contains the living area and kitchen.To protect this area from the sun the rear has porche with an lower roof 2.4m creating temper light and shadow to provide housing. The front side is provide with vertical high shutters to let the wind go through the house and providing privacy from the street. The other unit left provide the sleeping area with a roof at 2.6m.Right the services.The light in this house is mostly horizontal and continuous, reflected in the walls of the backyards except on the front.

The pool-deck has a large wall for privacy with at the end some vertical small openings to let the wind play in.
