ACORDE project seeks to maximize buildings´ flexibility, conceiving a residential building made of legally independent functional units that can be connected to or disconnected from each other with easy, plug-in facilities, in a way that permits to purchase exactly what the user need, as well as allows future changes for buildings to be adapted to the needs of their occupants, the user decides how to best utilize the space by acquiring or separating functional units along the years. For this to be possible, in addition to the legally independent modules concept, a diaphanous and very well organized structure is projected as well as a very solid and efficient envelope to ensure durability and minimal maintenance. The efficient occupancy of space leads to an optimal use of energy.
Adaptability, flexibility, demographic changes, end-uses, plug & play.
