Inspired by the precision and functionality of the crankshaft, a key automotive part, the design explores new architectural paradigms in a desolate environment. With adverse weather conditions, the approach becomes a laboratory for the development of innovative proposals, challenging everyday comfort and proposing visionary solutions.
Concept
The proposal consists of three independent towers, connected by a central core that organizes and gives cohesion to the whole. A first geometric ring links the three volumes, while a second and third ring link two of the towers at different levels, highlighting their variable heights as part of the distinctive architectural language.
Typology
Exposed concrete takes center stage, emphasizing the design’s sobriety and strength. The towers display natural textures and formwork patterns that engage with the desolate surroundings, while the connecting cores integrate polished surfaces to create visual contrast. Horizontal windows allow for controlled interaction with light, highlighting the details of the structures.
