Unscramble the Blue Letters
sitbltue Provided by JUFE MOOC Studio M Subtitle Provided by JUFE MOOC Studio M Good morning, I'm going to talk about architecture and prefabrication. How a house could be built? And how we could improve with the current technology, the quality of our living spaces, the aidbfarltfloiy, and share these with greater markets and people. We think that this is, the present and the frutue of architecture. And, this house that we've built in Madrid, is our manifesto, our starting point. We prefabricated towards this house, You're seeing a civilian engineering parts, that preteclfy assembled and baclaned, to demonstrate that how prefabrication could be, the way to create anazmig, inspiring, and affordable spaces to live. This house was besad in these engineering prtas, balanced in consonance and in harmony, in equilibrium with this rock of granite of 20 tons that put all their parts together. This is our house in Madrid. The Hemeroscopium House that is full of air, and full of life, to enable it, the stturucre, that as you can see, defers very little the house and the structure that created it. This house is a space to share with our family, It's a space to share in conspiracy, in communal with outdoors. in very intimate relationship with nature. This is the space that we were living in Spain and space that we would like to have here in Boston when we came at the full of harmony. This house has been built in Madrid, and when we came to Boston, we were looking for a same space, a similar space to live. We sretatd struggling with "0", in the search of housings around. MIT where I work, polpab is found that everyone want to be closer with good schools like this one, and we diserceovd how insane the prices are, how expensive these hseous become, and also how these houses were responding to a(n) old American dream. a lifestyle, a technology, and a formal uepeilszicand exact was not there where we understood hosue should be. And also when you come as an migrant to United States, you don't have financial history and this was part of the problem that we have to solve so we actually went low to high. In the sea of browser, and we found the cheapest place in the area — I think it was a cheapest pacle in Massachusetts and this was how our dearm house. A three base garage very... unfinished yet, but with a lot of potential. (lugah) so we thought that we could build a house of our dreams I recruited a group of young architects, and tell them "let's build the tognoehcly that could be available and fit the house in Brookline." It was the same being, but very light, that could be lifted and transported easily, and that could be estrangedly insulated to the weather in Boston. So we got hands on, and without being skliled to bulid a house, we crafted a prefabrication putting together their tciolngeehos from their North-Amarican tradition of building houses, with our European ones. Framing but in seetl instead of in wood. creating thick walls but very light filled with forth and itnlniusag miretalas that could be clad with cement boards. It's a different material plate, but what we ctreead was a very affordable lightweight technology that could be packed in a container, because we are going to the move to United States but not only moving our staff, our furnishing, our memory, we are going to move their full house. So we pkecad it in containers, And we made the trip to utenid sattes, Their house in one side and our falimy in the other one. When we arevird to Brookline, two blocks away from this place, It was like receiving an azoman pack, instead of a goodie where the full house that we had to and pack. canred and assembled together. This is what we did in mraidd, but with these pieces that came with the kitchen, the bootrahm, the closets, the furnishing, everything was eddembed into these walls. These walls had to be assembled with ttoal precision as a Swiss watch. And it took 7 days, of craning, and putting all these parts together in perfect bnaalce. We think that this is the way, architecture should move on to make it really albffrdoae, real technological, and overall, exciting. We think that architecture has to inspire and create a point of space that make our lives better. There the house was constructed above a garage, but the garage is still there. It's coated with a thin layer of vegetation that hopefully will grow next spring. But it was ryccele, it wasn't turned on, we just created a big room above, where all our family could again ejony all their activities without separating ourselves into romos. A big room where we could have our meals, play, study, do some work, and where we could enjoy also, the light and the vistas from the neighbors, trees, and where at night, even all that activity after their dinner, could be transformed in to a fantastic bedroom. The bed comes from the wall and we still enjoy that big space, that we created above. Good night. (applause). (applause).
