BRAND-NEW PREMIUM OFFICE ON THE FIRST FLOOR; ACCESS BY ELEVATOR OR STAIRS. CATEGORY BATHROOM WITH SHOWER, SEPARATE KITCHENETTE ASK ABOUT ADJACENT LOFT OF SIMILAR SIZE AND SQUARE FOOTAGE DESIGN READY FOR DEED TRANSFER. The property is located in the Central Area, at the heart of the city. It is situated on a 256-square-meter lot with an 8.36-meter frontage; the lot’s depth allowed the building mass to be organized into front and rear blocks, separated by a small courtyard that provides cross-ventilation for the main units. The project’s strategy seeks to revitalize and reinterpret the adjacent building, La Mercantil, located at the intersection of Newton, Larguia, and De la Torre streets, which dates back to 1950. Building on this, a contemporary design language is created that emphasizes the verticality found in La Mercantil’s metal sunshades. This creates a double exterior skin that defines the building’s urban image and serves both to reduce the impact of east-west sunlight and to act as a filter for privacy between the interior and exterior (in a very dense, high-traffic environment). To reestablish a connection with the exterior, openings are created in the vertical sunshade envelope, providing views toward the street. In turn, the heights of the adjacent properties define the movement of the facade, generating curves that open or close in such a way as to achieve the best views in each case. The building houses various unit types, ranging from compact loft-style units to one- and two-bedroom apartments with varying features, as well as spaces suitable for office use. The goal is programmatic diversity that accommodates different family structures, work patterns, and daily schedules. The project aims to revitalize the historic district, not only through its contextualist façade but also through the design of the ground floor, which is set back from the property lines, breaking through the urban filter created by the façade. This design approach creates a softer, more transparent environment, establishing a stronger connection and acting as an interchange with the surrounding public space.
