Typology
Residential › House
We understand this work as a succession of defined areas that are put into relation with each other to make a whole function. This is what we try to develop from its imprint. Volumetric clarity consists of determining these areas, giving them a formal identity, and putting them into relation with other areas composed with the same logic.

Between exposure and enclosure, the house works on 3 fronts, 3 meter slope and organizes 3 floors plus an attic. The upper volume functions as a white monolith with excavations that expose a wooden interior. A basement fused into the topography supports it.
