Juan Jose Diaz Infante through the recovery of six parabolic body polyester unexpected originally found by the original owner: Were recycled and brought back to life to create this new home: Residence – Modular House Hulls Polyester (2012) – Tlayacapan, Morelos, Mexico
This project began when customers have inherited an old polyester structure of a modular home where they spent weekends in years 1970.
The experimental house structure – designed by Mexican architect Juan José Díaz visionary Infante as part of its project Kalikosmia – using six shells which can be assembled in a variety of configurations. These shells were made of polystyrene foam coated on both faces of glass fiber, as a surfboard: a light foam core with a inflexible outer surface.
The owners bought a parcel at a Mexico City-hour drive to recycle six parabolic fiberglass modules re-assembling.
Recycled items were placed on an exposed concrete base of a meter high, for larger space and thus prevent the hot air concentration inside the vessel. The outdoor terraces are covered with concrete with a texture created by the wooden formwork (used once or twice before) to contrast between the dark concrete with a rough texture and white and smooth surfaces restored shells.
