About Dusitanon Egoitza
Baan Dusitanon lau solairuko egoitza bat da, tarteko solairu batekin, hiri-eremu jendetsu batean kokatua. Eraikina goi-erresistentziako aluminioz egindako lamina bertikalki lerrokatu eta leunki bihurrituz osatutako fatxada batez inguratuta dago. Laminek barnealdea kanpoko begiradetatik babesten dute, barrutik hiria ikusgai mantenduz. Fatxadak, gainera, buffer termiko gisa jarduten du eta pantailaren eta hormen arteko landaredun eremuak markoztatzen ditu. Solairu bakoitzean, erdi-pribatuak diren egongune-eremuak aurrealdean kokatzen dira eta logelak atzealdean. Laugarren solairuko altuera bikoitzeko egongelak hiriko paisaiara irekitzen du.

- Unique Properties
- Baan Dusitanon is a four-story residence with a mezzanine level, enveloped by a distinctive façade, located in the heart of the city. Given its urban setting, the surrounding environment is bustling with both pedestrian and vehicular traffic.
The primary design objective was to create a sense of privacy for the residents while maintaining a seamless connection to the city. The building’s vertically aligned and subtly twisted façade panels act as a visual screen, shielding the interior from external views without creating a sense of confinement. This design allows residents to enjoy unobstructed views of the surroundings while ensuring privacy.
Beyond aesthetics, the façade serves as a thermal buffer, reducing direct heat exposure to the main structure. The space between the façade and the building itself accommodates greenery and landscaped areas, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality.
The interior layout is divided into two primary zones:
• The front section of each floor serves as a semi-private living area, fostering interaction and openness.
• The rear section is dedicated to private bedrooms, ensuring tranquility for the residents.
On the fourth floor, a double-height living space provides an expansive view of the cityscape, enhancing the sense of openness within the residence. - Dimensions & Packaging
- The façade is designed with privacy and functionality in mind, featuring vertically aligned angled louvers that effectively block external views. This vertical arrangement minimizes dust accumulation and water retention on the surface.
Constructed from high-strength aluminum, the louvers have an elliptical profile with tapered edges for durability and a sleek appearance. The supporting framework is discreetly hidden within the elliptical profiles, maintaining a clean and seamless exterior aesthetic - Tags
