NIU project, designed by Fran Silvestre, arises with the purpose of innovating construction systems to increase precision in the materialization of architecture. Deadlines and certain costs improve the quality of human environments, making them more sustainable and healthy.
The N70 is the smallest model of the NIU project. The wet areas in which all the facilities are located divides the day zone from the night zone. A new version of a known typology that continues to fascinate us.
In this series of houses, the starting point is a combination of extruded spaces in which the open parts are the ones that are glazed. A way of proceeding is investigated in some works by Jacobsen or Souto de Moura. The work process begins with the use of aluminum profiles to make the models, a system that generates an infinite number of combinations.
