About La Mitjana
Light, harmony and balance.
The central skylight is the protagonist of the project, providing natural light for La Mitjana, and creating a radiant and peaceful space.
The light wood walls reflect the afternoon light, while the roof protects us from the scorching sun. Inside, the warm air is released through the opening of the large window, thus creating a unique space in between what’s outdoors, and what’s indoors – a quality already part of all our projects.
The earth-toned interior creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere that invites you to stay indefinitely
In the evening, the starry sky peeks through the windows, and the full moon illuminates the house. This prefabricated wooden house is an oasis in the desert, a refuge for the soul and the senses that reminds us that, even in the most inhospitable places, there is always beauty and warmth to be discovered.
Passive construction
Built with local pine wood and bioclimatic architecture principles, taking advantage of nature’s resources and its environment, with a very high energy efficiency rating.
Structure and Facilities
Local pine wood structure formed by a combination of heavy timber framing and industrialized panels with wood fiber insulation inside.
The air conditioning system consists of aerothermal equipment with underfloor heating and cooling, supported by photovoltaic solar panels.
Indoor air quality is guaranteed by a ventilation system with double flow recuperator.
Rainwater recovery system built with a deposit for its reuse.
Biocompatible electrical facilities with low exposure to electromagnetic fields.
Finishes
The exterior cladding is made of ecological insulating panels with high thermal and acoustic performance, plastered with lime mortar. The interior cladding consists of white pine wood planking with ecological and non-emissive natural water-based lasur protection for its inhabitants.
Wooden framing with double glazing, solar control + low emissivity and argon gas chamber.
Manufacture and assembly
The estimated manufacturing and assembly time is approximately 5 months, including the preparation of the technical documentation, industrialisation in the factory, assembly and finishings.
