Ventilated façade made with the corrugated metal profile INCO 44.6, used as a passive solar control solution, enhancing energy efficiency and adding aesthetic value to the industrialized modular construction. The LaM House-Studio, developed by the Murcia-based firm La Mirateca, is a project that merges modular architecture, sustainability, and advanced technology.

Located in the La Quinta residential area in Molina de Segura (Murcia), this 400 m² building is conceived as the headquarters of the studio itself and as a prototype of the LaM SYSTEM, a modular, industrialized, and self-sufficient solution.

The LaM House-Studio integrates two contrasting volumes, reflecting the duality between work and living spaces. This project exemplifies a contemporary architecture that focuses on efficiency, adaptability, and sustainability, offering an innovative alternative in the field of modular construction. The industrialized construction system is based on 3.60-meter three-dimensional modules, made from cold-formed galvanized steel elements, allowing for quick and precise on-site assembly. These modules are clad with EPS panels for high thermal insulation, and the entire system is designed to be transported by truck and assembled in situ.

The architectural concept is developed around a continuous envelope that wraps around the entire perimeter, forming a hermetic volume. This skin, made from large-wave white lacquered corrugated sheet metal, acts as an adaptable system for solar control and privacy: in the openings, it can be opened via tilting doors to connect with the surroundings, or closed to preserve indoor privacy, functioning as an outer curtain that filters light while maintaining views.
The façade, through the use of the corrugated profile, creates a changing play of light and shadow throughout the day, giving the building a vibrant character despite its static appearance.

To construct this envelope, the INCO 44.6 corrugated metal profile was used, manufactured from galvanized steel with a 25-micron paint coating and R3T6 perforation. It contributes to passive solar control, improves the home’s energy efficiency, and enhances privacy without compromising interior brightness.

Roof typology

(1) Indicate the length of the span of the arch, which is the greatest horizontal distance between the supports of the curved roofing.

(2) Plan-view dimension representing the full length of the curved roof measured perpendicular to the arch span.

(3) Specify the obstructed area under the canopy, in square meters, as a proportion of the total area of the front or side (transverse or longitudinal) façade, in order to calculate the obstruction factor. If it is a closed construction or there is no obstruction area, indicate 0 m².
