项目概况:


Casa Hemeroscopium designed by Ensamble Studio, located in Madrid, Spain and with an area of 400 m2, was completed in 2008. It is the building where the sun sets and is ever-changing along with the times. It is delimited by the references of the horizon, by the physical limits, defined by light, and it happens in time. And it does so playing a game with structures placed in an apparently unstable balance that enclose the living spaces allowing the vision to escape. With heavy structures and big actions, dispose in a way to provoke gravity to move the space. And this way it defines the place. It is a balance game of instability. The granite with weight of 20 tons is the balance of gravity to keep the whole building. The order in which these structures are piled up generates a helix that sets out from a stable support, the mother beam, and develops upwards in a sequence of elements that become lighter as the structure grows, closing on a point that culminates the system of equilibrium. Seven elements in total. By the way this structure is set, the house becomes aerial, light, transparent, and the space kept inside flows with life.
