Os axis

Idea projektu

The project idea is the creation of villas from the union of some modules adhering to a central axis. The construction modules are divided into 3: the corridor module, the ramp or stair module and the room module. The functionality that we provide is a day area and a night area, so the tour always begins in the day area, which consists of kitchens, living rooms and dining rooms. Both areas are separated by the staircase or ramp module, which creates a transition space where we insert the pool. Everything is organized from an orthogonal plot facing south.

Popis projektu

Through materiality, a natural atmosphere and connection with the environment is achieved. To self-supply the villa, the modules are integrated in the design by photovoltaic solar panels and solar thermal. The shape of the cell also facilitates the collection of water. The villas are accessed by wooden walkways designed in an organic way and being exclusively pedestrian.

Technické informace

The materials used are mainly pine wood and glass, for the coverings and the structure would be light and metallic. The transport of modules will be carried out by trucks from the workshop located at Mokrice 180C, 49243, Oroslavje, Croatia; at a distance of 292 km (2h 53min) to the workplace. This workshop has 2 crane bridges and enough dimensions for its assembly. Subsequently, upon arrival at the workplace, each module will be placed with crane that allows its exact placement. The transport company that will cover this service should provide the right equipment for the essencial construction of the villa. For the construction of a villa we will use 16 modules in total, approximately. It is decided that upon arrival of each module it is arranged on site directly, so there is no collection area. Likewise, a maneuvering area is prepared for the trucks and the roads with a provional widht of 3,5 m are prepared for a correct circulation of the trucks.

Os axis

This project presents a thoughtful approach to integrating architecture with the natural landscape of Croatia. The design emphasizes modularity and adaptability, allowing for flexible configurations that respond to the site's topography and environmental conditions. The use of lightweight materials and open structures fosters a sense of openness and connection with the surrounding environment. The project's strength lies in its commitment to sustainability and minimal environmental impact. By utilizing prefabricated modules and considering passive design strategies, the design aims to reduce energy consumption and promote ecological harmony. The incorporation of communal spaces and pathways encourages social interaction and community engagement. However, while the conceptual framework is commendable, further development in architectural detailing and spatial articulation would enhance the project's overall impact. Detailed plans illustrating circulation, material choices, and construction methods would provide a more comprehensive understanding of the design's functionality. Overall, "Os Axis" offers a promising vision for sustainable and context-sensitive architecture. With additional refinement in design execution and technical detailing, it has the potential to serve as a model for environmentally conscious development.
