Visit to Casa Sabater | Architecture Week 2023
25/09/2023
El Colegio Territorial de Arquitectos de Alicante celebra la Semana de la Arquitectura, con actividades abiertas a toda la ciudadanía y organizadas del 26 de septiembre al 4 de octubre de 2023.
This year also sees the premiere of the OPEN ALC festival, which consists of a series of guided visits to some architectural pieces that are part of Alicante and the province. These visits are open to all citizens and have been designed in order to review the good design and quality architecture that exists in Alicante.
Our studio will open the doors of one of the latest recent projects, Casa Sabater. The project located in a small town on the Costa Blanca emerges as a piece of contemporary architecture in the shape of a double Y.
The house, which is presented as a continuous dialogue with the exterior, consists of four architectural elements that descend, adapting to the slope of the land and that suggest the geometries that we often find in nature. These geometries, in turn, seek to overcome the vegetation of the plot in order to preserve it. The implementation delimits three different areas: the access, as a porch, the private atmosphere of the rooms facing the hillside and the space that opens to the landscape.
Each volume frames a part of the privileged environment, generating a sequence of landscapes that blur among the vegetation, generating the impression of having no limits and offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding forest and the sea from each of its rooms.
