21 VPO, locales y garajes en Avda. Vilches (Almería). 

La propuesta ofrece una alternativa de diseño y distribuciones generales respetando los parámetros establecidos de VPO y programa de necesidades. Las viviendas se abren al trazado de la Avenida Vilches, accediéndose a ella a través de una galería trasera articulada con un patio.

La cubierta tiene un tratamiento diferente, proponiéndose un espacio vividero, con superficie ajardinada y rincones de descanso y cultivo para los integrantes de la comunidad, que pueden disfrutar de un jardín superior y un espacio de juego para los niños.

La tectónica de las fachadas se resuelve con materiales composite y chapados pétreos en colores pastel difuminados, a la vez que se usan texturas de chapas y alambres trfilados en el cerramiento de la galería posterior, que se prolonga hasta la cubierta confomando marquesinas de sombra.

Colorful Light Pillars

How can an aurora appear so near the ground? Pictured above are not aurora but nearby light pillars, a local phenomenon that can appear as a distant one. In most places on Earth, a lucky viewer can see a Sun-pillar, a column of light appearing to extend up from the Sun caused by flat fluttering ice-crystals reflecting sunlight from the upper atmosphere. Usually these ice crystals evaporate before reaching the ground. During freezing temperatures, however, flat fluttering ice crystals may form near the ground in a form of light snow, sometimes known as a crystal fog. These ice crystals may then reflect ground lights in columns not unlike a Sun-pillar. In the above picture, the colorful lights causing the light pillars surround a ice-skating rink in Fairbanks, Alaska.
