Residential building | Baza

Residential

Located at avenue José de Mora, at the heart of Baza (Granada), Baza Residential offers 27 high end units in an area of 1100m2.The flats are differentiated due to their privileged cross ventilation and their maximized natural light, and their typology varies between 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments.

Its volume is defined by an external skin, cladded with different combinations of travertine stones, differentiating and enhancing the building. As 80 % of its façade is south oriented and annual temperatures range between 40º and -4º degrees, the choice was to use a ventilated façade in order to control solar radiation and thermal loss. The same treatment was given to the roof which was equipped with communal solar panels used for the heating system, saving annually up to 30% in energy, and generating a return on investment over 6 years.
