This house is a very special project for our firm, because due to the tight time we had to design and build the house, the project synthesizes the concepts that our firm considers essential for good architecture.

The main idea was to take advantage of the long side of the land (20m x 50m) since our construction was 165m² and the lot 1,000m². For this, the different spaces of the house are arranged one after the other, forming a kind of elongated gallery, giving the feeling of a house much larger than 165m².

We wanted to design a house that had what Le Corbusier called the architectural Promenade, which is in other words to create an experience as walking through the different spaces of the house.

It is for this reason that the house does not have the typical main access door, two parallel corridors, one exterior and one interior, unite all spaces of the house, creating different perspectives and shadow light games along these routes.

In the southern boundary of the lot was built a pool of considerable dimensions, so it was decided to place the public area of ​​housing throughout this pre-existence, followed by this space are the rooms, which are divided by a cylindrical volume that divides the construction in half and creates a diffuse boundary between public and private spaces.
