CASE STUDY: MODULAR HOUSING (2026)

How to respond to the affordable housing crisis for young professionals? Rethinking scale.

This project explores new ways of living based on an unconventional typology: micro-housing units designed within the dimensions of a shipping container. Located steps from the Sagrado Corazón Urban Train station, the proposal converts an industrial structure into a functional, adaptable, and accessible space.

The development includes two alternative typologies that incorporate a commercial component on the ground floor, connecting with the modular housing.

What do you think of this type of modular typology for the city?

Todo proyecto comienza con una idea, y muchas veces con un “sketch”. Antes de los planos y el modelo digital, está ese primer dibujo que permite explorar una forma, una relación espacial o simplemente poner una intención sobre el papel.

Lo importante es que, al completar el proyecto, esa idea inicial siga presente. El “sketch” cambia, el proyecto evoluciona, pero la idea que lo originó debe permanecer.

El pasado viernes tuvimos nuestra reunión de equipo para dar seguimiento a nuestros proyectos.
Pero sin duda, uno de los momentos más especiales fue la despedida sorpresa que preparamos para una de nuestras compañeras, quien inició su licencia de maternidad.

¡Estefanía, te deseamos lo mejor en esta aventura!
