tini® Casa en Menorca

tini as Contractors

This tini® is a large terrace, an interior space completely connected to the views. Located on top of a hillside, surrounded by pine trees and Menorcan ullastres, this house offers privileged views of the Mediterranean. The beauty of the place invited us to create an unusual configuration, with exterior connections and access walkways, which enhance the contact of the house with its surroundings.

Wisley, the uses are separated according to their degree of privacy and taking advantage of the best orientations for each space. The 3x9.8m modules are arranged in a T shape so that the common areas, living-dining room-kitchen are open to the sea views and the south orientation, while the bedrooms face east, and enjoy the pleasant light of dawn. In addition, this configuration respects all existing trees and incorporates them into the access routes.

In the Mediterranean climate it is important to create shadows where you can stay cool, and we have done so in this project, adding different filters such as the reed pergola or the string curtains that sway in the north wind. A place to be cool and sheltered from the sun.
