MYCC oficina de arquitectura is a hispanic architectural office based in Madrid. In 2012 they developed an extraordinary single apartement, which is contained in 20m2 and a volume of 100m3. In this limited space a single person should be able to live, work and feel comfortable. To combine comfort and functionality, the architects planned the apartment as a longitudinal cube which is sectioned both horizontal and vertical. Diverse staggered levels make it easy to get from one end to another within a few seconds. Due to their openness the rooms are visually connected and get a touch of vastness and transparency, which is reinforced by light and simple floors. A modern, straight-lined designed interior puts the finishing touches on the apartment and give it the title: small but mighty. [1]

The project is a longitudinal section. The height of the space is used to contain a large number of rooms that are limited by side but in turn they are all connected to each other visually. Even the bathroom is in sight ... The need to accommodate the entire program, each with its own characteristics and specific proportions, provides an image that is reminiscent of old computer games platforms. The idea of such forged light at different heights from which you can go from one to another almost jump was present from the first sketches.

The dimension both in plan and section of each unit of use provides a number of slopes for the change from one room to another is done in a physical way to the kitchen Up and down the bedroom provides a heightened sense of change and a perception different place, either each of the separate areas of the house as a whole. The house, despite its size, seeks to be generous in their spaces and the number of rooms offered. None of the parts that make it up have a fully defined use: the kitchen is a step towards the lounge, which provides a decrease in the time step that is seat. The lounge is located on the store and the floor is registrable. From the central space is the living room is the bedroom, to sunny sunroom with an industrial staircase, which can function as a study or chill, and a few small steps lead to the bathroom, oversized and with the luxury of a warm bath made in situ. Construction and finishes have been made ​​so simple and straightforward and takes all the space blank.
