A high rise building with the feel of a family home, Ferrocarril 4bis

This award winning housing project is located in the centre of Madrid. It is characterised by an innovative design, in which each floor is occupied by a single programmatic unit, materializing the idea of living in an elevated house located in the center of the city.

The flat is fundamentally based on light.The facade works as an ener­getic diaphragm defined by different layers that occupy the whole front. These layers made of complementary materials are unfolded to control light, ventilation, privacy and landscape.
