Rampiral is located on the Pacific coast on the beach of Same province of Esmeraldas north of Ecuador. Located on a plot of 36’394m2 with a front of 254m facing the sea. It includes 7 buildings.  A total of 28 apartments. The intention of this preliminary project is to present a design with modern, welcoming spaces and with visual connection to the natural surroundings.

The design concept uses smooth rotation of the floor plates to maximize the views towards the beach and thus create movement and rhythm that complement the environment. All the apartments have balconies that continue with the forms of the buildings and connect with the communal spaces. It also presents good social spaces and functional adaptations for the good living of the residents.
