The architects delaVegaCanolasso have designed a new minimalist shelter, a modular and industrial construction designed for temporary use. This project is located in a unique rural landscape, an extensive private estate in the city of Cuenca.

This dwelling serves as a first home and prioritises the immediate use of the space, as it anticipates the time dilation involved in the construction of other more complex buildings. Through a pre-fabrication system, the construction team of tini / tiny-home, manages to establish this minimum housing in just 60 days and with a system 100% made in Spain.
The modular housing proposed by delaVegaCanolasso has a thermal insulation that allows optimal thermal comfort, it adapts perfectly to the different temperatures generated at any time of the year. It has a strategic elevated orientation that allows the building to enjoy excellent views of the site.

Its system is composed of a galvanised steel façade and its interior spaces are made of OSB wood. The work also enjoys a small terrace with a large glass window, thus generating a space for contemplation in connection with the nature of the estate.

The project is completely self-sufficient and is designed so that in the future it can also be used as an annex to the main house.

Description of project by delaVegaCanolasso

This tini® module has become the first house in a large estate located in Cuenca. The young owners already wanted to fully enjoy it, without having to wait for years for the future construction of a large traditional house that they also planned.

After looking for an alternative in the market for industrialized houses, they choose the tini® formula for construction in 60 days, due to our special capacity in the thermal insulation of the house, knowing that this area alternates with periods of extreme cold and heat.

They didn’t want to give up the design and quality of the materials, opting for a galvanized steel facade and an interior with walls and ceilings in OSB wood, oak floors, pine furniture, and an interior fireplace for autumn-winter, and an additional exterior terrace form for spring-summer.

They had our advice for the exact location and orientation of the house, and we recommend an elevated area, with the largest glass facing northwest, deep views of an oak grove, and little visual connection with the other house they plan to build in a few years.

Until that happens, this will be a 100% self-sufficient home in terms of electricity, water and drainage connections. And, when both of them coexist, the Tini will become an excellent complement, for example as an independent guest house.

delaVegaCanolasso. Madrid-based young architecture studio founded by Ignacio de la Vega, Architect from the Polytechnic University of Madrid and Pilar Cano Lasso, Architect from the San Pablo Ceu University.

They focus on tailor-made projects, with sustainable and welcoming designs, highlighting the integration of light and the nature of the environment. Specialized in prefabricated architecture, we have developed the tinyhome project, modular homes made 100% in Spain transported directly by truck.

They believe that the conjunction of the in-situ work and its noble aging combined with parts totally prefabricated in the workshop, results in a rich and agile architecture, which adapts perfectly to its surroundings and improves over time.
