Overall view of the house where it reads clearly the development of plane bending.
View from the room towards the kitchen and service access, this photo shows the natural light that enters the service corridor, through the expansion in the facade, and secondly, the view to the pool. The dining room in texture, shape and color is true to the simplicity concept of the project.
Main facade, there is the main access via stone stairs and a wooden deck spanning over a reflecting pool that leads to different areas of the house.
The parking area is constructed with ecological paving stone, minimizing the footprint on the landscape.
Front side in this photo is seen as the ladder becomes the second floor, wall and ends up forming the roof that rises at an angle creating more shade to the house.
This image clearly shows how the interior and exterior space become a single, undivided, almost imperceptible.
Interior view of the social area, in this image is clearly the view that is generated to the outer zone due to the absence of columns as the windows are hidden behind the walls creating a natural setting, light, water, wind and vegetation sharing same space, aided by white walls and ceilings of flats who just want to frame and get to nature in all its glory.
