BIRBILIS URBAn RESIDENCE
11 / 06 / 1998
Urban dwelling with the bearing elements to goddess the architecture. A lively dialogue of form with matter. An unusual version that comes to upset urban scenery.
Everything is architecture... Everything in moderation and boldness creates a side that surprises you.
The ceramic elements, overlap and at the same time framed by the reinforced concrete sculpted seeking a slight dissonance in the discipline of the lines, to meet the same embossed image of the glass...
The glass and metal complement with a rugged vertical element the appearance of the project, creating for the user a coarse communication with the environment.
A permanent sculpture on the face with the creation of a wall of broken glasses of two centimeters thickly placed on top of each other giving the image of shattered material and the relief of harmony....
