Mariá Castelló Martínez, Home office, Es Pujol de' sera Formentera, Spain, 2011

Es Pujol de s’Era comprises 33,022 square metres of wheat and barley fields, a small wood of common and Phoenician juniper and rosemary, and dry‐stone walls on a practically flat topography. The intervention seeks refuge among the existing vegetation and a fragment of dry‐stone wall. These two conditions draw out the dimensions, the orientation and the height of a construction of austere geometry that bears some relation to the architectural tradition of Formentera.

The north‐south orientation of the proposal generates a duality. 

The volume is defined by an envelope of rendered thermo‐clay masonry and reinforced concrete.The envelope containing the programme (12×12 m) extends in the two main directions, generating spaces of transition that are vital in these latitudes.



On the north side there is a small architecture studio, repeated on the south side in the form of a space of identical dimensions, designed as a small dwelling‐refuge for a couple.
