The Project is located in a condominium development ok 5,000-sqare-meters lots. Neverthless, the typology reflects the configuration on a diferent scale, of a typical city block in central Guayaquil, with back-to-back constructions occupying the perimeter and generating patios on the interior. If we were to remove the divisions, we would have a single continuos building with a large inner patio.
Likewise, the spaces of the house are articulated around a square central patio, with an internal corridor. The patio connects all of the spaces visually and ensures tha the house has a landscape of its own.
The divisions between adjacent domestica paces are marked by separate rooftos and projections on the continuos façade. Thus, they can be read as indepent units belonging to a single system. Exactly as in the center of the city.

El proyecto se ubica al interior de un condominio de sitios de 5.000 m2. Pese a eso plantea una tipología que repite a escala la configuración de una manzana típica del centro de Guayaquil, en la que las construcciones, adosadas, ocupan el perímetro de la cuadra dejando sus patios hacia el interior del terreno. Si quitáramos las divisiones, tendríamos una edificación continua con un gran patio interior.
Siguiendo el molde anterior, aquí el conjunto de recintos se organiza alrededor de un patio central mediante un corredor interno en un sistema cuadrado. Este patio conecta visualmente todos los recintos y garantiza un paisaje propio para la casa.
A cada recinto se le dio la forma de estar adosado a los recintos contiguos, mediante cubiertas propias y salientes en la fachada continua. Así, la lectura del total reconoce unidades ciertamente independientes pero pertenecientes al mismo sistema, cuestión que se observa en el ejemplo extraído de la ciudad.
