The success of this new project for Casa Decor 2022, by the Ruiz Velázquez studio, is the amplitude in functions and the awakening of emotions in a house of only 40m2.

A home as a center of wealth for the human, where the one who inhabits it can reinvent the usability of each corner with total flexibility. The accelerated pace of life and the fading of functional limits thanks to technology, makes our homes 100% functional, mechanical and routine, stripped of any kind of human ritual.

We propose a design defined by necessity, not by the laws that have been dragging along history. This is a home that responds to current needs and presents the aspects that we must modify for the near future. After all, we can see that pandemics are no exception in the history of humanity, they are the rule, leaving the domestic adaptation of our homes today very backward.

This new concept of housing maximizes usability and takes advantage of the performance of the material of the company ALVIC, creating a type of prefabricated constructive use totally outside of stereotypes and decorative conventions.

Here the human being will be able to go up, down, climb, dream, get close, shelter being able to create his own story every day. These prefabricated Alvic volumes will be like a mountain or a building inside the home. With these volumes we make the most of the m3 of the house. They will be structured from the three-dimensionality of space in width, length and, especially, in height; one of the least used coordinates in the design of apartments within the city, being only 3m.

Around these volumes are stripped of certain uses each space of the house giving total freedom to the space. Like in urban design, in these spaces you can create new functions that are subsequently necessary in our new reality of life such as the game room, the library, the kitchen, meeting room, gym, school, chat rooms, recording studio, etc. All these new functions awaken active rest: a committed use of downtime that naturally counteracts stress and supports resilience and good immune function.

The spirit of biophilia not only focuses on volume, but it also works on 100% natural materials and finishes such as the ALVIC Elm finish, characteristics that bring a circular economy to the project. Also, chromotherapy is worked through the new collection of Alvic Pigments. We reinforce the state of materials with more elements in the house, such as ECOPLEN smart textiles; COSENTINO; LUZIFER artisans luminaires; ASKO appliances; the TECHNOGYM sports equipment, combining in the same aesthetic element and functionality. These approaches are a proven benefit to well-being.

Constructively it is a sustainable design, with 100% recyclable boards, a constructive eco-design model, systematized and articulated in an intelligent way according to the needs of our times. A space built in a modular and fully adaptable way that can perfectly change scale and shapes for future constructions.
