The project begins from a clear premise: to recover the area’s traditional architecture through a forward-looking and innovative design language. From this guiding idea, the house is organised as a contemporary reinterpretation of tradition, where form and layout are shaped around everyday living.
The clients asked for generous spaces that would convey both openness and togetherness. To reinforce these qualities, the design introduces two double-height voids: one associated with the bedroom and the other with the study. Each space operates independently, while remaining visually and functionally connected to the living, dining and kitchen areas, preserving the autonomy of each programme without losing spatial continuity.
In response to the surrounding landscape, the design incorporates large-format windows that establish a direct connection with the setting. This openness creates an immersive atmosphere, allowing the house to engage with the lake, the mountain range and the volcanoes of southern Chile, making the views an essential part of daily life and reinforcing the idea of a home that brings together tradition and contemporaneity.
