Refurbishment of a barbershop.
The aim of the intervention at Barbería 51 is to convert a garage into a barber shop, understanding it as a place of meeting and dialogue. To organize the space, a tradition of the region has been taken up: to sit down "a la fresca". In the past it was more common to find meetings of people in the urban environment, where people talked and talked about their neighbors.
With this premise as a starting point, an empty space is created in the interior formed by basic materials bathed in white, where the main activity is framed in a blue box, as a showcase. Outside, a bank is located as an accident, where neighbors wait, share and talk participating in the community. This intervention of low cost, allows a natural division of the workspace with the waiting area, where the professional is not distracted at any time, only observed and admired from the outside.
Reforma para una barbería.
El objetivo de la intervención en Barbería 51 es convertir un garaje en una barbería, entendiéndola también como un lugar de reunión y diálogo. Para ordenar el espacio se ha retomado una tradición de la región: sentarse “a la fresca”. Antaño era más habitual encontrar reuniones de personas en el entorno urbano, donde se conversaba y de relación entre los vecinos.
Con esta premisa como punto de partida, se crea un espacio vacío en el interior conformado mediante materiales básicos bañados en blanco, donde la principal actividad se enmarca en un cuadro azul, a modo de escaparate. En el exterior se ubica un banco a modo de accidente, donde los vecinos esperan, comparten y conversan participando de la comunidad. Esta intervención de bajo coste, permite una división natural del espacio de trabajo con la zona de espera, donde el profesional no es distraído en ningún momento , sólo observado y admirado desde el exterior.
