Transformation of a sculptural form.

The project starts with the exploration of the intersection of three non-parallels planes. The planes are geometrically proportioned generating areas of different hierarchies. Then explore the intersections of three tubular volumes derived from the original planes and maintaining the hierarchy previously established. Next, comes the insertion of the previous volumes into a cube, studying the significant dialog of the skin and interior space.

The last part of the project was to insert the cube in a site between two buildings. The cube would become an apartment for an artist painter. The organization and the functions of the apartment had to be oriented to the painter's needs and this would create a dialogue between the architectural object the program and the topography of the site.
