Renewal-Zone:彩色的變革力︱廢棄公寓樓改造


Carretas是一個對公寓樓進行改造的項目,位于克雷塔羅一處宜居的步行社區(qū)中,臨近知名的克雷塔羅渡槽并能夠欣賞到該景觀。


這座建筑初建于上世紀90年代,如今包括四間寬敞的三臥室公寓,每間均設(shè)有書房。實用的現(xiàn)代空間非常適合家庭和專業(yè)人士選擇。此外,一家建筑設(shè)計公司位于建筑一層,作為建筑重要部分直接與街道相連,使該地更具魅力。


改造舊建筑遇到了一些意想不到的困難,例如過時的建筑結(jié)構(gòu)系統(tǒng)采用鋼梁和輕質(zhì)混凝土板,給改造選擇帶來了很大限制,導(dǎo)致隔墻無法拆除。然而,建筑師設(shè)法找到了一種美觀的解決方案,將鋼梁裸露出來,增強空間的寬敞度和自然采光。


面臨諸多挑戰(zhàn)之下,改造通過彩色石灰灰泥、鋼制細部、藝術(shù)品和家具賦予建筑年輕化的形象,打造出具有凝聚力的優(yōu)雅的視覺效果。


整個立面和庭院使用了“Nanocal”彩色石灰灰泥,建筑結(jié)構(gòu)得到了加固,并對整個屋頂被侵蝕的板式結(jié)構(gòu)進行剝除清潔、處理和加固。


改造將居住的舒適度置于首位,安裝了高能效的供暖系統(tǒng),始終保證理想的水壓,并開放了能夠欣賞渡槽景觀的露臺,配以高品質(zhì)的家具和床墊來以呈現(xiàn)令人放松的空間。


建筑師將多位墨西哥藝術(shù)家的作品整合其中,營造出獨特而精致的氛圍,為建筑增添當(dāng)代美感。


這一改造為改變建筑空間和提高人們生活質(zhì)量豎立了很好的典范。此外,重新利用廢棄建筑,將其改造成為適宜居住的功能空間,為城市做出了積極貢獻。改造空置或廢棄的建筑不僅可以解決住房短缺的問題,還有助于減輕土地使用的壓力,防止城市的無節(jié)制擴張。


該項目體現(xiàn)了建筑改造為城市及其居民帶來的積極影響。


Carretas is a renovation project of an apartment building located in a residential, family-friendly, and pedestrian neighborhood in Queretaro, with proximity to and views of the iconic Aqueduct of Queretaro.


This building, originally constructed in the 90s, now features four spacious three-bedroom apartments, each with a study, ideal for families and professionals seeking a modern and functional space. Additionally, the ground floor of the building houses an architecture office, making it even more attractive with its direct connection to the street and serving as an anchor component in the building.
During the renovation of the building, we faced some unexpected challenges, such as the outdated construction system used for the building's structure. This system, based on steel beams and lightweight concrete slabs, limited our remodeling options and prevented us from demolishing partition walls. However, we managed to find an aesthetic solution by leaving the exposed steel beams uncovered, enhancing the spaciousness and natural lighting in the spaces.


Despite these challenges, our goal was to give the building a more youthful image through the use of pigmented lime stucco, steel details, art, and furniture, creating a cohesive and elegant visual effect.


We used 'Nanocal' pigmented lime stucco for the entire facade and courtyards, and reinforced the building's structure, as the entire rooftop slab structure was corroded and required uncovering, cleaning, treating, and reinforcing from underneath.

In this renovation, we prioritized the comfort of the residents by installing an efficient heating system and ensuring optimal water pressure at all times. We also opened up terraces to enjoy the views of the aqueduct and installed high-quality furniture and mattresses to guarantee rest and comfort for the residents.

To complement the modern aesthetics of the building, we integrated artwork by various Mexican artists, creating a unique and sophisticated atmosphere.

This renovation project is a great example of how architecture can transform spaces and improve people's quality of life. Moreover, this project represents a positive contribution to the city by reclaiming an abandoned building and transforming it into a habitable and functional space. The renovation of unused or abandoned buildings not only provides a solution to housing shortages but also reduces pressure on land use and prevents uncontrolled urban expansion.


This project exemplifies how building renovation can have a positive impact on the city and its inhabitants.
