ME ACUERDO

Me acuerdo de buscar Pinups de los años sesenta en los P2P, antes de la nube, para llenarlas de fuegos. Me acuerdo de la instalación de video con 16 monitores en paralelo, con mis doscientos primeros copos. Solo-show. Me acuerdo del sofá arruga diseñado para Arco, y de los bidones para las revistas. Me acuerdo de salir en bici en la tarde por Chueca y llegar hasta el frescor del Retiro. Me acuerdo de la lámpara ducha que montó Mario, enganchada al carrito colador. Me acuerdo de las tardes dibujando con Christian, arrodillados sobre el mueble de los cuatro cubos y la alfombra Wilma. Me acuerdo de encolar las primeras 100 cajas que contendrían mis mil libros, y de leer cada noche en el mítico sofá sueco, en Blasco. Me acuerdo de la esbeltez de los pilares del edificio Trole.

TROLE BUILDING /////////////////////////////// MADRID SOUTH ///////// WHITE ATELIERS IN BLACK COAT

 
One morning a client stopped into our office, he said loved the space we were working in. He 
and his partners had bought an old coffee factory in the south of 
Madrid. He wanted us to prepare a project
 to build office spaces like CAMAROTE in that plot. First we had to demolish the 
factory and DESIGN a project plan. The plot laws said we could make a 20m 
high building with no more than 3 floors. So we already knew height was 
decided, the building had to shrink 3m meters from the neighbouring line
 and the maximum area to build was about 4000m2, excluding an 
underground garage and a space for machines.  We
 drew a building that would be a new icon in the neighbourhood, a new 
diamond in an ocean of dull brick buildings. In the summer we 
presented the project for license in the municipality. It took more than
 a year to fix details and we accepted to do some changes to pass the law filters, especially the fire 
regulations, which are very strict in offices and factory lofts.
