This housing block building has 22 floors of dwelling unit with retail shops on the ground floor. This social housing project in Madrid called as 132 Social Housing Block was designed by Spanish office Estudio Entresitio. The private units are hidden from the outside because the building is clad in zinc tiles and windows are scattered across the surface.
The public housing has a total of 132 one and two bedrooms housing units, for a net floor area of 9000 sqm plus 300 sqm of ground floor commercial use. Above ground, the building occupies 70% of the limit set by the alignment of the façades, with a general setback to liberate more public space on the front sidewalk access and natural relief of ground floor commercial use. This residential building has two towers of different heights.
The design offers a low maintenance solution, ventilated, which facilitates the transpiration of the facade, protects the building from rainwater infiltration and prevents interstitial condensation. The building can adapt to the climate with careful consideration of the optimization of acoustic and thermal insulation of the building, which being located on the outside of the brick walls, avoids possible thermal bridges.
