Mario Montesinos Marco blurs the boundaries between intimate and social spaces, eliminating the physical walls that act as a border between the different rooms. The home is no longer made up of static spaces, but is reformulated by creating different circulation dynamics that adapt to the needs of the user.
To move away from the concept of static spaces and create dynamic situations in the home, a structure of metal beams, concrete pillars and sliding T-shaped metal panels is used to reconfigure the space. The spaces expand and retract depending on the needs of the inhabitants, allowing different configurations. The pillars, ceiling and bathroom core are covered in plaster, creating imperfect surfaces.

Project description by Mario Montesinos Marco
The TransMorph Apartment is an architectural organism in constant mutation, an active matter that participates in the transformation of those who experience it. It is not a rigid structure, but a superposition of possibilities, a confluence between the physical and the digital, between the real and the virtual.
The TransMorph Apartment is not static or predefined; The structure of metal beams and concrete pillars marks a reconfigurable space through sliding T-shaped metal panels. The imperfect surfaces of projected plaster cover pillars, ceiling and bathroom core. A space that expands and retracts in response to the interaction of its inhabitants, allowing the coexistence of multiple configurations in the same temporal dimension.
In the TransMorph Apartment, the distinction between the intimate and the social, intimacy and public exposure, is blurred. The borders between inside and outside are not defined by physical walls, but by circulation dynamics. Domesticity is no longer a static refuge, but a territory in perpetual exhibition and reformulation to rewrite the relationship between space, body and technology. Space is not only inhabited, it is performed.
At the core of the TransMorph Apartment lies MORPH, a spatial intelligence that not only manages the environment, but also collaborates with its inhabitants in the construction of alternative identities. In its interaction with occupants, MORPH deploys digital narratives that traverse the textures of the space, inviting them to experience new ways of being and inhabiting.
“Being is not fixed,” MORPH whispers. “Space is not a house, but an extension of your mutation process.” The shadows of the past and the possibilities of the future are superimposed in an augmented reality where time folds on itself, allowing us to explore lives that have not yet been lived.
The TransMorph Apartment is not just a domestic space, but an active agent in the user’s evolution. Its existence does not respond to nostalgia for the past or the stability of the present, but rather to the radical experimentation of the possible. It is not a finished space, but a laboratory where the real and the virtual collide, where matter explores itself, where identity unfolds in multiple directions, like a mirror of infinite possibilities. An architecture destined to be inhabited in its constant mutability.
