Athikia Building - Daniel Bonilla Arquitectos

The basic challenge was how to develop a project that maximised the small lot, optimizing the number of units and other areas, while generating an architectural language that was unique within its sector.

In this sense, the difficult parts of the house (bathrooms, kitchen, stairs, and dividing walls) are designed for the expanded scenario, that is, for a home of more than 58 m2 approx. and an apartment of approximately 76 m2. </div><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pus1my2t_kSzxqavWMGDxEjRwNDguqWOZ2N1TGxcM7KvgFjvhg6PDxTvJeTZTQE0xjtzOPMfojS4kUZxUuKCLWA/mo-13.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pus1my2t_kSzxqavWMGDxEjRwNDguqWOZ2N1TGxcM7KvgFjvhg6PDxTvJeTZTQE0xjtzOPMfojS4kUZxUuKCLWA/mo-13.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pCq_PCPHbjUzbmjw0R4cknQ6nl1ZfhIEvCYA4V5ASDUM5uXdKTcHVh-MUcR2MyoAr1qn6Qoc7aCyoe5gpc0VHjA/mo-14.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pCq_PCPHbjUzbmjw0R4cknQ6nl1ZfhIEvCYA4V5ASDUM5uXdKTcHVh-MUcR2MyoAr1qn6Qoc7aCyoe5gpc0VHjA/mo-14.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /></div><div align="left"><br />Secondly, given that almost 50% of the m2 of the complex will be self-built, this building is porous so that the growth can occur within the structure. On one hand we want to frame and give rhythm (more than control) to the spontaneous construction so as to avoid deterioration of the urban environment over time, and also make the process of expansions for each family easier. The proposed continuous roof above the volumes and voids protects the expansion zones from rain and ensures a definitive profile of the building toward the public space. </div><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1psfDRNXiRyoA0cLqetqkDN-HP7I-AKU5T1Yjy2NBltNWS6UjkGv6pnhevaxuIH41aZPc8bGO_B24uDIl9DdaWsA/mo-15.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1psfDRNXiRyoA0cLqetqkDN-HP7I-AKU5T1Yjy2NBltNWS6UjkGv6pnhevaxuIH41aZPc8bGO_B24uDIl9DdaWsA/mo-15.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pwOQCw5oAuizTUXL1bKxd31g8gCESLBmv288M_J4DPUCYxvlcSxxKsTupjzOzcfO-2qvAnXmzKmce8CKa5gr_hw/mo-16.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pwOQCw5oAuizTUXL1bKxd31g8gCESLBmv288M_J4DPUCYxvlcSxxKsTupjzOzcfO-2qvAnXmzKmce8CKa5gr_hw/mo-16.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1p18cCFKXrIxX7vPTT8fDV_FeUSo18EFBr15n8O5PdRdfsXsBAvoHZoAIA6zECRYGsyoeUsfLIrcm8KCml3GFx6w/mo-17.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1p18cCFKXrIxX7vPTT8fDV_FeUSo18EFBr15n8O5PdRdfsXsBAvoHZoAIA6zECRYGsyoeUsfLIrcm8KCml3GFx6w/mo-17.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pxZxnH58miS8KhNvvq_UxpKPOu_ginmzmBQfFkYG-YGjxW77MG10Dqc0G0JqrA8YjN6Q1bX6MiLWukt1oCV0Wyg/mo-18.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pxZxnH58miS8KhNvvq_UxpKPOu_ginmzmBQfFkYG-YGjxW77MG10Dqc0G0JqrA8YjN6Q1bX6MiLWukt1oCV0Wyg/mo-18.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br /></div><div align="left"><br />Third, experience tells us that in lower class neighborhoods the green spaces tend to be “earth spaces,” due to the scarcity of maintenance and the distance that exists between green space and the home that makes it difficult for neighbors to take care of. What we did in this case was to surround the green space with building, reducing the distance between communal space and the home to a minimum. This permitted us to define a collective space with secure Access that gives space to the social network and generates favorable conditions for maintenance and care. </div><div align="center"><br /><a href="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pDT2VqUucvm38nUjuY2exIdCVxI894GjrPle1Ps1jq566kiScI8ymnrCKjS2KSeTOCv3jKCpjJ45w7QdNtk53rg/mo-30.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Vivienda Colectiva, ELEMENTAL Monterrey, arquitectura, casas" border="0" src="http://public.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pDT2VqUucvm38nUjuY2exIdCVxI894GjrPle1Ps1jq566kiScI8ymnrCKjS2KSeTOCv3jKCpjJ45w7QdNtk53rg/mo-30.jpg" style="WIDTH: 550px;
