The building is located near the sea coast, as well as the stops along the railway line heading north in Chile. On this line, after falling into neglect, only the most resilient remained. Everything ephemeral succumbed to looting and time. Empty container stops, punctured with rectangular windows in the walls, are scattered along an imaginary route.
The project anchored the house in a specific location and chose a secluded arrangement of bedrooms; dining room with kitchen, and living space to ensure total independence among them. Three monolithic reinforced concrete containers were created. The regular subdivision emphasizes their precarious position and the connection between the volumes, which are not predetermined by their form.
The construction appears perched on the edge of the sea, like the stations at the edge of the train line to northern Chile, where after falling into disuse, only the solid remains. Everything perishable has succumbed to looting and time. Empty containers devoid of everything, with only their rectangular perforations in the walls, scattered along an imaginary line.
The project was approached autonomously from the specific site and opted to separate the program by disaggregating bedrooms, dining-kitchen, and living space in order to ensure complete independence among them. Three monolithic containers in reinforced concrete were designed with a perforation scheme that ensures versatility of placement and association between the volumes, which were not predetermined.
