Ignacia是由四个大面积的公寓组成的一组，分为两卷，每套有两套公寓。有一个长方形平面图的卷，有三层完整的楼层和一层四楼，可以把屋顶用作露台和游泳池(第五立面)。

Ignacia is a group of four large square footage apartments consisting in two volumes with two apartments each. The volumes, with a rectangular floor plan, have three complete floors and a fourth floor which is set back allowing the use of the roofs as terraces and swimming pools (Fifth façade).

此外，该项目还包括使用适合居住的地下设施。(我们称之为第六立面)穿透地下空间是一种独特的光线和自然通风的可能性。掩埋和开放的地下，使一个新的景观，突出了压缩的近墙的存在，作为一个门口的天空。

Also the project includes the use of the habitable underground. (We call it the sixth façade) Penetrate the underground spaces is a unique possibility of light and natural ventilation. Burying and open to the underground and enable a new landscape which highlights the compressed presence of near walls as a doorway to the sky.

正如我们所有的作品一样，我们也坚持使用分隔墙作为建筑支撑(第七面)。在这种情况下，隔墙的特点是一个新的全景，使一个新的景观和一个新的地方为建筑物。

As in all our works, also we insist in the use of dividing walls as architectonic support (seventh façade). In this case the division walls characterize a new panorama, making a new landscape possible and a new place for the building.

这四套公寓的特殊情况是，它们的节目和面积都是不同的。每套公寓至少有两层，每一层都有一个双高空间。

The four apartments have the special condition being that they are all different, both regarding their programs and their square footage. Each apartment has at least two levels and each one is accessed through a double height space.

该方案主要解决在该部分，因为公寓是垂直和水平插在一个空间相互作用，寻找自然光的基础上的设置和阳台。Ignacia建筑的可持续性主要是通过使用第五、第六和第七外墙来实现的。这些允许分隔建筑，冷热，创造自然的隔离，通风和照明。

The program is resolved mainly in the section, as the apartments are intercalated vertically and horizontally in a spatial interplay, searching for natural light on the basis of set-backs and balconies. The sustainability of Ignacia building is principally by the use of the fifth, sixth and seventh façades. These permits separate the building, heat and cold, creating natural isolation, ventilation and lighting.

利用和控制自然光和阴影的重要性使我们得以提出一项生物气候建议，并创建中间空间，使室内空间能够整天与自然光一起停留、玩耍和休息。

The importance of using and controlling the natural light and shadow permitted a bioclimatic proposal and the creation of intermediate spaces that permits the use of the interior spaces to stay, play and rest with natural light all day long.

此外，每套住宅与房间的北部(太阳)。正确的定位和屋顶上的太阳能电池板有助于节能。把所有公寓统一起来的唯一因素是物质性和终结性。只有一种材料强化了独特体积的概念：混凝土。

Also, each dwelling sets with the rooms to the north (sun). A correct orientation and solar panels on the roofs contributed to the energy saving. The only element that unifies all the apartments is the materiality and the terminations. Only one material reinforces the idea of a unique volume: the concrete.

内部完全是白色，允许更多的亮度，反射光。门窗和木制品都是用雪松木做的。从建设性的角度来看，建筑物是用含二氧化钛的混凝土和5英寸宽木板的酚醛模塑系统解决的，这些模具是根据窗户、窗台、梁和墙的几何形状设计和调整的。整个建筑面积2670平方米，每套公寓内部面积在400至500平方米之间。

The interiors are entirely white that permits more luminosity, reflecting the light. Doors, windows and carpentries were in cedar wood.
