The proposal is based on the idea that hyper customized Dingbat apartments units can be ordered thru a web application, be assembled in a factory workshop and delivered for the client on a specific “skeleton structure” in the Dingbat 2.0 area.
URBAN SYSTEM
The urban system is based on the division of the area in 44 lots (45’x60’) organized along a Central Alley and two driveways backyards. Each lot can host a maximum of three Dingbat 2.0 single units. On the two sides of the Central Alley, two “skeleton structures” raise from the lots grid, defining the space for each Dingbat apartment unit to be plugged-in. The driveways backyards run under these structures. The Central Alley is the main road of the system, while the two backyards driveways allows to access by car to the four parking places provided to every single lot.
At the beginning of the process, the “skeleton structures” are void. They get full with Dingbat Apartments delivered directly on site after been ordered by the clients, and fabricated in workshops.
SINGLE UNIT CONFIGURATION APP
The Dingbat 2.0 web application is conceived as a complete configuration system in which the client can choose the location of its Apartment, the dimension (SMLXL), number of rooms, shape (box or smooth), materials and even decorative patterns. The system allows for 110 different apartment configurations, each of which can be finished in a number of materials and patterns. The number of different final Apartments units is potentially endless. At the end of the configuration process, the application offers the opportunity to “save”, “modify”, ”restart” or “order” directly the single Dingbat unit. When ordered, the single unit is manufactured in workshop, and delivered on site fully assembled, to be plugged in the skeleton structure.
Such a system allows for a combination of a number of fully customized units, creating a very differentiated house-scape within a typological integrity.
