Nàpols is about the rehabilitation of a small apartment built in 1910 in the Eixample district in Barcelona.

This project is part of the theoretical and practical research titled "Projecting the Void," advocating for a transformation in the conception of housing. It seeks to move away from viewing housing as a commodity defined solely by market value, towards understanding it as an infrastructure defined by its potential for various uses.

Starting from a home featuring more rooms than windows, the proposal consists of opening and emptying the space.

Existing partitions are removed, and the design revolves around two essential elements: the kitchen and the bathroom, referred to as "the minimum means to inhabit a place." This approach creates a series of unprogrammed voids with the potential to accommodate various uses.

The presence of more than one door in these voids allows for a continuous circulation, facilitating different activities to take place simultaneously.

The kitchen, transformed into a piece of furniture, becomes the epicenter of the project. Additionally, the use of glazed tiles contributes to emphasising and defining the area of circulation related to it, while simultaneously dissolving its limits by extending into other rooms. 

Regarding the bathroom, it functions as a container that integrates mobile panels, allowing the space to be segmented according to needs.

In this manner, the void, structured only by these two elements, turns architecture into a framework of possibilities, providing the inhabitant with the ability to assemble and reassemble their conditions of occupation.
