Casa de Nerón is conceived as a reflection on economy, adaptability, and permanence, proposing a domestic architecture shaped by necessity, collective life, and long-term use. Located in Asia, Peru, the project responds to its context through a restrained and pragmatic vision, where architectural value is generated through use and clarity rather than formal complexity.
The guiding concept of the project is simplicity as an architectural strategy. Low construction costs and the use of modest, efficient materials are understood as active design tools that define the character of the house. Spatial quality emerges through proportion, repetition, and the controlled relationship between built mass and open space, allowing the architecture to remain legible, durable, and capable of evolving over time.
The house is conceived as a flexible structure that accommodates the changing dynamics of a large family. Spaces are designed to support multiple forms of occupation, encouraging collective use and reinforcing social interaction. Interior and exterior spaces are closely connected, allowing daily life to flow seamlessly outdoors and providing settings for gatherings, routines, and quiet reflection.
The main concept focus on avoiding iconic gestures in favor of a quiet, resilient architecture. It proposes a realistic domestic model in which economy, spatial clarity, and adaptability come together to support everyday life and the accumulation of shared experiences.
