Pelayos de la Presa Reimagined. In our concept, we embark on a mission to transform the historic monastery into vibrant spaces that transcend mere functionality, rooted in place-making and social interaction. Carefully crafting each corner into a welcoming, interactive environment fosters a sense of community indoors and outdoors.

Designing a tiny house for low-income and vulnerable individuals in a desert climate with limited resources is a challenging task. The house should have a courtyard to address the hot climate and protect against direct sunlight. Compressed rammed earth, an affordable and well-insulating material, will be used for construction. The ground floor will serve as a workshop for each family to work in.
