URBAN PROPOSAL FOR THE CITY- PORT INTERFACE

The Barcelona City-Port interface is under continue transformation. The limit between the urban port and the industrial logistic area is under movement and is being continually displaced south, opposite to urban positions, in search for areas where to minimize conflict between urban and port activities. At the same time, physically constrained the city of Barcelona is in search for space to provide houses to new comers.

This proposal link port and urban interest through the creation of a continue slab that facilities logistic activities under while permits urban activities above, provide space to enlarge today’s straitjacketed transport infrastructures and solve the link between the city and the bigger park in town, Montjuïc.

TWINS

A standard house is adapted to the requirements of a family of six, both its interior and through taking advantage of the spectacular landscape and outside space. Cars are moved further down on the plot, extending the garden to bring the sea closer to the occupants. Circulation is reorganised to foster circular flows and easy access to the different levels. The whole plot becomes a playground for the twins, while particular arrangements are given for the family’s multiple individual and collective activities.
