CLT structure in Guadarrama, Madrid. It is located in an excellent location: overlooking the Guadarrama mountain range, centered on the Navacerrada mountain pass.
The building is adapted to the plot to take advantage of sunlight and views of the surrounding landscape, thus achieving optimal energy efficiency.
It is worth noting that the existing annex has been equipped with photovoltaic solar panels as an energy source. With the extensive insulation designed throughout the entire envelope, including high-density insulation under the foundation slab, a continuous envelope is achieved with the façade, roof, and floor against the ground, resulting in very low consumption, thanks to the aforementioned energy source and its construction as a passive house. A key factor in this result are the exterior walls made of cross-laminated timber. This system CLT It clearly reduces transmittance, eliminating thermal bridges and unwanted air infiltration.
The house is developed on a single floor and its geometry is articulated by two twinned bodies, with the living-dining-kitchen body taking center stage due to its greater height, which is brought together in a single space.
