About Miorita Trano fonenana

Ny Miorita dia rafitra fonenana misy rihana telo, any Chisinau. Ny ambany indrindra dia misy toerana ho an'ny varotra, ary ny rihana roa eo ambony kosa dia misy trano fonenana telo. Misy toerana fiparkinga ambanin'ny tany eo ambanin'ny rafitra. Samy hafa ny endriky ny rihana tsirairay, ka manome endrika mifanenika sy mihodinkodina ny rafitra iray manontolo. Ny fisehon'ny trano dia mampifangaro fantsona granita seramika maizina miaraka amin'ny fanaronana hazo mafana sy mazava amin'ny rafitra mivoaka rivotra. Ny zoro maranitra sy ny lampihazo mivoaka (cantilevered terraces) dia mahatonga endrika miovaova ao anatin'ny tontolo an-tanàna.

Production Technology: The building has a concrete monolithic structure, brick outer walls as well as partition walls. The shape of the building is partially obtained by the additional steel structure used to support the ventilated facade systems.
Design Challenge: Overall Miorita residence is a project that aims to elevate the standarts of living not only functionally but conceptually and aesthetically. It combines technology and design and creates its own urban context, making it the center of attention due to its dynamic design.
Research: The limitations imposed, from local administration, due to the complex morphology of the structure and the design challenges that it poses have influenced the design and made it more organic. A lot of research has been done to choose the right facade material and the convenient structure to create the sharp angles of the window openings.
Inspiration: The lot chosen for the project has a skewed polygonal shape which has inspired the concept of the project. Each level has a unique polygonal shape which makes the building look like a stack of boxes placed on top of each other, rotating and stretching in order to catch the best angles.The sharp angles and the cantilevered terraces make for a dynamic building that integrates into a monotonous urban landscape with an elegant yet daring contrast of form and material.
Project Duration: The project has started in november 2021 in Chisinau, went through approval by local administration, and is currently beggining its construction phase (march 2022).
Operation Flow: The comercial spaces can be accessed directly from the street, while the acces to the residential levels is made from the interior courtyard. The placement of the neighbouring building directly on the edge of the lot has determined the choice to cover the windows that overlook the inner courtyard with shutters made from the same timber which cover the facade for privacy. The inner courtyard, has a buffer role and provides additional visual and sound barriers for the residents of both neighbouring properties.
