Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra, Il progetto domestico

Il progetto domestico by Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra explores the Spanish architect’s vision of living, conceiving the home not merely as a set of rooms, but as a micro-city based on spatial continuity. At the core of this reflection is the concept of the threshold and the intermediate space—through patios, courtyards, and loggias—which blurs the boundaries between inside and outside. Drawing on the lesson of Luis Barragán, Consuegra uses natural light, geometry, and nature as actual building materials to define the atmosphere of the domestic refuge. The text weaves the Mediterranean identity of his renowned residential and social housing projects together with the teaching experience linked to the context of Ca’ Lando in Padua, demonstrating how scale, living dimensions, and intimacy can effectively dialogue with the historical urban fabric.
