CONSOLIDACIÓN Y AMPLIACIÓN IGLESIA DE SAN MILLÁN, SEPULVEDA

La Historia

La iglesia de San Millán, cuya fundación se estima en el siglo XII constituye un ejemplo singularizado entre las iglesias de Sepúlveda, principalmente por su cabecera recta. Aparece mencionada por primera vez en el siglo XIII en un documento de reparto de rentas del cabildo y obispado segoviano del año 1247, y su historia como parroquia se extiende hasta comienzos del siglo XIX.

Es por tanto una iglesia románica de una sola nave de planta rectangular y cabecera recta al exterior, que se divide interiormente en dos tramos abovedados, con una torre-campanario adosada en el muro norte de la misma. Abandonado el uso religioso del edificio fue habilitado como vivienda en el siglo XIX y resultó fuertemente transformada. El estado de la Iglesia antes del proyecto era completamente ruinoso.

El Proyecto

El nuevo conjunto lo forman la antigua nave y cabecera de la iglesia convertida en vivienda principal, un volumen reconstruido hacia el sur, (que incorpora los servicios y espacios auxiliares de la vivienda) así como la consolidación de la torre campanario.

La morfología del conjunto arquitectónico es fiel los volúmenes originales. La vivienda principal, (antigua nave y cabecera), así como la vivienda adosada, disponen de cubiertas a dos aguas a la segoviana, conservando la pendiente original. Respetando la planta y volumen original, la vivienda adosada a la cabecera se ha reconstruido de acuerdo con la documentación histórica disponible.

En relación a los elementos arquitectónicos y huecos exteriores, el proyecto respeta todos los elementos históricos documentados: arcos románicos hacia la fachada norte, arco triunfal hacia el altar mayor, saetera y frescos en la cabecera, puerta principal hacia la fachada sur, e incorpora nuevos huecos de ventanas, de proporción vertical, necesarios para el nuevo programa.

The project

The Manuel Fraga Iribarne Foundation dedicated to the preservation of Don Manuel Fraga’s legacy (a significant library, altogether in excess of 150 m³), decides to restore Manuel Fraga’s family house in the town of Villalba, Lugo.

The Solution

The project maintains the spirit of the original family house; it preserves the masonry facade towards the street and includes a curtain wall towards the back yard, in memory of the former glazed facade. The renovation includes an exhibition space on the ground floor, a reconstruction of the original house on the first floor, a library on the third floor, and a reading room on a generous walkway, suspended above the library space.

The rooms

The multipurpose room projects visually outwards. The drop ceiling of chestnut wood presses the space, thus directing the view towards the small courtyard garden. The Library extends from floor level up to the underside of the roof, taking advantage of the building´s volume. A generous walkway, suspended above, offers access to the window projecting from the roof.

A Regueira

The Plot

The estate “A Regueira” is located in the small village of Rioaveso, in Villalba, Lugo. The land, slopes slightly towards the south, covers an area of 15.000 m² and preserves a quaint forest in the northeast. Three original stone buildings were centered built on the site: a manour house, an antique woodshop and a small shed.

The Solution

The project involved the complete restoration of the manour house – including additions to the dwelling, the transformation of the woodshop into a library, the remodelling of the shed into a guesthouse, and the construction of a garage and a swimming pool removed from the original buildings. Furthermore, the access to the estate was moved to the north, between the guesthouse and the garage.

The materials

The restauration and remodeling of the estate was much like a surgical intervention, carefully expanding the original house through a series of abstract volumes. The only materials used in the renovation, concrete and chestnut wood, establish a serene dialogue with the sober construction of granite and slate.

Project Abstract

The rehabilitation Project of this historic house maintains the original volume outwards, and creates clean spaces, full of light, towards the interior.
In a 300 m² plot, the project increases the building surface area, excavating a basement under the original house. Access to the property is by a bridge over a forecourt, directly to the living/ dining room of the house. The master bedroom is located on the left wing and the kitchen and utility room to the right wing. Both volumes open visually to the central courtyard with a pool.

Bailén

Project Abstract

The renovation makes the most of the available space, extending the living room visually towards the terrace by means of two large windows. All the house’s services (kitchen, bathroom and closet) are placed in a 2,50 m side “cube” much like a piece of furniture, separating the living room and the bedroom. The use of dark wood flooring throughout the space offers visual continuity.
