Bromelia Shelter / [Plup!] Studio Costa Rica

A simple and low-cost structure generates space from two planes that function as a wall and ceiling at the same time, allowing a quick evacuation of water and any other element that comes off. As well as bromeliad, the project rests on two concrete service cores that are the ones that structure and from which it is suspended. This allows the natural runoff water from the ground to continue its way as it always has. In addition, it allows correct ventilation of the mezzanines that help the control of the humidity, this is coupled with controlled cross ventilation and a skylight that in addition to marking the time, allows the entry of light and certain heat.

The use of low-maintenance materials will allow the project to mature in conjunction with its context and that some elements are eventually lost in the forest participating in its ecosystem as it retakes its space slowly true time.
