Two oak trees, a sheet of water and the horizon are the pre-existing elements in this plot, which influence the position and formal configuration of the house. The presence of this vegetation in the foreground, and the Pedrezuela Reservoir in the background, forces the house's floor plan to adjust its geometry to these elements.

This project takes a different approach by leveraging the potential of interior spaces to positively influence the surrounding environment. Unlike conventional designs that isolate buildings from their perimeter walls and leave windows facing neighboring properties—often leading to privacy concerns and visibility issues.
