Abstract
Introduction: The modern heritage of 20th century Spanish architecture, particularly in the city of Madrid, includes an extensive range of high-quality social housing that, due to its peripheral location and economic restrictions, can be lost without public policies to preserve it. Updating this housing to meet the current habitability requirements, as well as enhancing and transforming it into high-quality 21st century residential buildings, is a task that cannot be postponed. Purpose of the study: The issues of energy efficiency, habitability and accessibility are very salient today, so it seems pertinent to recover relevant examples of 20th century architecture and investigate to what extent the parameters with which they were designed are still valid. Methods: This paper reviews housing case studies in two neighborhoods, Poblado Dirigido de Fuencarral and Colonia Juan XXIII de Carabanchel, comprehensively analyzing the original buildings and their current rehabilitation. This includes comparing the buildings’ energy efficiency before and after the intervention carried out. Approach: This study verified that in both cases, an attempt was made to recover several elements of the original design during rehabilitation. Results: We found that both projects were originally committed to creating an open, pedestrian-friendly city with abundant vegetation, which is still a valid value today. Despite the economic restrictions at the time of construction, both projects used advanced energy strategies, such as the passive design offered by cross ventilation, the unusual thermal insulation envelope, or the efficient district heating. Novelty: In addition, this paper aims to incorporate the heritage of the great mid-20th century architect José Luis Romany, author of both projects, into modern Spanish architecture.
简介:20世纪西班牙建筑的现代遗产,特别是在马德里市,包括一系列高质量的社会住房,由于其周边位置和经济限制,如果没有公共政策来保护,这些住房可能会丢失,以及将其提升和改造成高质量的21世纪住宅建筑,是一项不可推迟的任务。研究目的:能源效率、可居住性和无障碍性问题在今天非常突出,因此,恢复20世纪建筑的相关实例并调查其设计参数在多大程度上仍然有效似乎是有意义的。方法:本文回顾了Poblado Dirigido de Fuencarral和Colonia Juan XXIII de Carabanchel两个社区的住房案例研究,全面分析了原始建筑及其目前的修复情况。这包括比较干预前后建筑物的能源效率。方法:本研究证实,在这两种情况下,都试图在康复过程中恢复原始设计的几个元素。结果:我们发现,这两个项目最初都致力于创建一个开放、行人友好、植被丰富的城市,这在今天仍然是一个有效的价值观。尽管施工时存在经济限制,但这两个项目都使用了先进的能源策略,如交叉通风提供的被动式设计、不同寻常的隔热外壳或高效的区域供暖。新颖性:此外,本文旨在将20世纪中期伟大的建筑师何塞·路易斯·罗曼尼(JoséLuis Romany)的遗产融入西班牙现代建筑,他是这两个项目的作者。
