Veliz Arquitecto: Based on a housing module that reflects the constant direction we have to connect to nature in terms of shapes and functional impact, in the first instance we rise from the ground to have the least impact on it, helping to achieve better control of the views, the use of fibers and natural materials is a premise that we take into account in contrast to some details in glass and concrete, the fragmented roofs and their continuity that turn them into walls and closures allow better cross ventilation as well as application of the hatch concept so that the hot air escapes through the upper areas, achieving cool environments inside and ruling out the possibility of heated electrical equipment, the circular windows generate natural lighting and shadow effects that contribute a lot to the interior design, we implement micro solar panels in all rooms shells integrating this sustainability property into the design is  tica, bug is a mobile module that can change context as well as the possibility that its wings or shells can close or open depending on where it is located taking into account the weather and other factors, “we have a duty to contribute to our ecosystem, I don’t think that we have to live in such large spaces, with the basics it is enough and if it is also sustainable then we will be fulfilling a great function”…
