Degana Social Housing from Zon-e Arquitectos

This black Social housing design built in mining city in spain - Degana. This house designed by Architects Nacho Ruiz and Jose Antonio Ruiz Allén Esquiroz from Zon-e Arquitectos architecture firm. In a city where nothing new has been constructed for more than 25 years, the new building keeps away from the common facades of a mining village with its volumetric angular profile and rich geometry. Connecting two existing urban plots, the new structure houses 15 small apartments with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape, and has a black exterior (resembles coal) that is capable to absorb most of the light.
