TOPOGRAPHY, SITE AND PRE-EXISTENCES.
The allotment feels inserted into a peripheral zone of the town of Bugarra (“Els Serrans”). Among the avenue of the Regional Government and the road among Pedralba and Xestalgar. A hillock that him cut by the infrastructures either mentioned. Almost outer to the helmet of the population. An a lot pronounced slope of 100%. With terrains with organic, abundant matter of gypsum, etc In a Basic Way terrains of ancient carob tree. Seen important in the ravine that falls down until the Túria river to its step for the population. An enviable microclimate. Softer than the town nearby. A small population, with population inferior to the 850 inhabitants.

PROGRAM
Given the silhouette of the site in a triangular and elusive way, in principle it thought on placing 16 housings of VPO, with the one cleared back it was seen a lot that of the firm ground it remained hidden to fall down to the ravine attached. With which circumstance we saw forced to reduce the blocks to it. Two blocks of seven (7) making to the rowed one single-family piece each one. Given the location, to the Mountain the modules of protection are very low. It was necessary to implement a very effective and operating constructive system to take out a worthy product. Making council flats with community zone of amusement. Housings with four bedrooms. Big kitchen in the style of the village. Terraces attached to dining room. Baths fulfilled at both levels. Garage and lumber room. Totally as if of a chalet it frequented. But for people of the village that had a very rural conception of the housing. As a matter of fact it was for young people from the population.
The cost price of sale 10 a million of pesetas. Total cost from unit 7 a million. Levels of standard quality. Accessibility to normal people of the village, low economic standard.

FORMAL AND THEORETICAL CONCEPTUALIZATION.
Green triangle. Minimalism with concessions. Architecture povera.
The ordinances of the sector forced from to move back four meters of the zone of public avenue downward, future street and of the local road. In the beautiful half a one the green triangle remains of interrelation of the future owners. Driven away from the kernel of the center of the |village. Two lengthened blocks, iteratively with housings among walls of load. Some categorical blocks, without concessions to the sensationalism that years to come they flood the “coentor” and the kitsch of our populations. Concessions to colours of the land, ochre, black handrails, etc Cover that the climatic preservation of the colds winters of the zone of inside helps. Any detail to stand out of the adjustment and coupling of the cover with two waters, typical of the environment. Breaking of the cadence through the board of dilatation, which it will help to coupling itself to the contour curves.

COMPOSITION.
This intervention is the addiction of housings with an interaxle of 5'80 m. Without inner elements of structural character. Inferior zone, garages with lumber rooms. First, the sick leave, plants zone by day. It plants second zone by night. 4 double Bedrooms and a complete bath.
This intervention constitutes a criticism before time of what could happen some years afterwards. Against the saying "with money, nougats." The modernity and the synthetic economics can be denied to him.
¿And their formal composition out of "sensational" excesses?
Obviously it is not a beautiful, but naked intervention. Of profession. Realistic. Satisfaction of a dry intervention and product of a rationalist demand. It does not belong to the sphere of the sensations. It does not belong to the sphere of the “coentor”. Or the Kitsch. It is vulgar, but epic at the same time. Of an epic and ethics that are not customary any more. Bad times for the poetry.
