On a steep plot, in the middle of a forest and with direct access to the
wonderful Lake Colico, in the south of Chile, 3 houses are planned with
different requirements and shapes, but maintaining a similar concept and
materiality, to achieve harmony between them and with the nature that
surrounds them.
House 2, more compact than the others, seeks, through the game of levels, to
generate the greatest number of areas with a view of the lake and
independence from each other.
The volume contains 3 levels with access from the middle, generating
windows towards the entire environment in order to capture the forest, the
lake and the large esplanade in front that is spatially closely linked to the
house.
By combining metal and wooden coverings, a link is produced between the
home and its environment, which, added to the breaks in the volume,
generates a beautiful spatial harmony and respect for the place where the
intended project is located, through a work of leveling and semi-buried
volumetry, generating spatial and visual independence, in the daily use of the
3 houses.
