  The mean proyect's idea is based in keeping the compositive and leading structure of the building, having for that the conservation of the urban shape and the catalogued elements. All those structural elements that have been damaged by the unfortunated and continuous reformations, as well as by the absence of conservation up to be unable to develop a present housing program in which the most important chose to have are the structural stability, ventilation, illumination and the uses' distribution or planification have been softened. The compositive structure is based in all the essential compositive elements of the traditional domestic architecture on the historic city centre of Seville, such as the vestibule, stairs, patios, galleries...The principal patio turns to be the most important space due to its own peculiarity . It has a direct access through the vestibule in a central position, even though the ground-plot's small widness. The patio's joint with the side gallerie, placed on three of its sides and closed on the fourth one creates on the building's hearth an impluvium. The patios' emplacement respect the covered spaces generates an issue of open and closed, enlightened and shaded spaces needed for good orientations and privacity. From the own proyect there is an intention to qualify chaque space and its relations by giving them the neccesary dimensions according to the new uses and treatments, to impose the housing program to develop the opening of new illumination and ventilation vain, the program's functional aspects solution. As well as to give to the building a formal and spatial coherence by jjoining all its parts and clarifiying the relations between the exterior space. The most difficult part has been to keep the present relation between the main patio and the side gallery which, without a wall, made going through the outsides spaces to reach the rooms by the incorporation of a movable glass roof. The proyect bets for the rehabilitation versus the restauration, leaving untouched the differents steps in its life and using the conservation-renovation theory applied to materials and constructives systems. All of them have its place and none dies or kills, they live together.
