The housing units are designed to correspond the climatic conditions of the area; this
includes the circulation of natural air and the penetration of natural light, reinterpreting the
traditional architecture of the area, highlighting its main elements.
The opening of its single façade, fragmented by an exterior gallery, facing a wide street,
allows us to incorporate the natural and built environment to the houses. To this end, it was
worked to be used as a buffer zone that promotes, under safety regulations, the relationship
between the interior and the exterior with the main street of the city.

It was created then, in its single facade, a dynamic and permeable, which promotes the entry
of wind and light into its interior spaces; through an ornamental wall with traditional blocks on
the ground floor, which works as a barrier and separates the interior with the exterior gallery,
and re-interprets a new architectural form. And with the intention of promoting lightness, in
the upper floor we worked with polycarbonate, a lightweight, non-sharp plastic material,
divided into modulated panels.  Photo 5 of 13 in The Lighhouse: Vernacular architecture that respects the traditional logics with lines of contemporaneity. by JAG Studio
