The Lighhouse: Vernacular architecture that respects the traditional logics with lines of contemporaneity.

Program:
Within each independent unit were located: Master Room, Master WC, Social WC, Kitchen,
Dining Bar and Social Room. The open kitchen was worked as the pivot of each unit, placing
it longitudinally in the narrowest part of each floor. A dining room bar was generated, which
serves as an auxiliary to its small social room. On the ground floor, in particular, a secondary
space was created within the only bedroom, as an emergent solution to the housing needs,
which can serve as temporary (family) or permanent accommodation (assistance).
Interest in the materials that make up the built environment:
As a main requirement, and an important part of the dissolution of the land, Cristina, as
post-earthquake posture, wanted to avoid reinforced concrete, glass, and block masonry in
its majority. The architectural project responds in a very strategic fashion to this situation:

-Natural disasters do not exist, there are natural phenomena. Disasters are caused by man-
The resulting project is the integration of many overlapping variables as a starting point; an
economically viable construction, accessible to those who, at almost 80 years old, try to
build, from 0, their home.
The initiative started from a process of physical and social development through the
proposal of materials. The Caja de Luz for its composition, manifests urban vernacular
traditions, using materials usually associated with underdevelopment, being contextually
conscious, expressing the correspondence between the appearance and structural nature of
the project.
