The author says about the project:
The E-Co-housing “Breathe” project is the result of analysis carried out of the metropolis, highlighting certain problems that we had been aware of for some time.
City life is frenetic, disturbed by atmospheric and sound pollution, the hectic speed of telecommunications, and the lack of free time for ourselves and our loved ones. |

People want to get back to their natural interior and get away from the city centres whenever they can but it is not always possible.
“Breathe” E-Co-housing was designed to create a model of cohabitation, to recreate the background of an uncontaminated landscape in the city: a green oasis that combines the concepts of individual and social wellbeing through the archetypes of nature.
The architectural approach was guided by concepts of nature, ecology, microclimate, creating four main points in the project: green planted areas, greenhouses, ecofriendly materials, energy and economy saving systems.
The public spaces are in the basement, on the ground floor and a part of the sunroof. |
