Abstract

2 Buildings by M. Fisac «Vega» office building in Madrid This aesthetically thought out building is eminently urban, with natural gardens and no enclosing fences or artificial obstacles separating the site from the street. The «Vega» building comprises a central block, with the vertical communications, including stairs and three lifts, and and three wings that correspond to the triangular shape of the site. The basic constructional mediiun, which has been very wisely used, both for the paraments and flooring, is untreated reinforced concrete. Single family dwelling at Somosaguas, Madrid The various zones of the building have been planned mainly in relation to their orientation, so that the living zone faces to the South, and the bedrooms are on the East. Also, the separate parts of the building are situated at various levels, to have as much sunshine as possible, and achieve optimum adaptation to the site profile. The garden is also planned on multiple levels in accord with the ground topography. In this building, too, untreated concrete has been adopted almost exclusively, together with precast units and granite stone.
