Casa Sant Feliu

Terraced house with two levels and attic, 4.27m width and a depth of 21.40m. Since its main façade is facing south and the back terrace is facing north, the house is organized grouping day-time zones in the first floor and creating a courtyard for ventilation. This allows the living room to benefit from southern orientation but maintains privacy from the street and also illuminates the centre of the ground floor. The structure is steel with rigid joints welded off site in order to guarantee transversal stability. All on site joints were screwed fixed only. Timber ceilings are made with micro-laminated beams and Kerto and plywood panels. South facing facades, exposed to direct solar gain, are provided with an openable ventilated panel made of wooden slats which integrates the window’s solar protection. All the roofs are ventilated through wooden slats.
