Spaces Crystallization

Casa R+ is a single family residence project designed by OOIIO Architecture. The site is on a narrow and quiet street on the center of Mora, a village in La Mancha, in central Spain. The house concept is a play on this “discrete urban situation”, surrounded by other quite simple buildings, becoming a little find, something different and unique that the pedestrian will discover by chance, on the same way that a geologist finds this precious mineral that he has been looking for a long time and suddenly finds on the most unexpected place.

The house spaces have a tectonic configuration, sticking each other, like rock crystallization, the whole home revolves around a great central space from where all other spaces come out. This space is like a double high covered yard, connected to the other “crystals” making the house. It has also several points where the natural light can get inside, with a wooden stair as the main spatial object embracing everything.
