A massive concrete wall, in a horseshoe shape, defines the house on the site. The 12-meter difference in level between the house and the street allows the views to extend generously over the landscape.
The two long, undulating openings (from the bedrooms on the mezzanine level and from the living / home-office / dining room on the ground floor) seek vibration and rhythm on the façade.
In organic forms, the colors on the façade compose the windows, establishing counterpoints to the geometry of the concrete.
The interior space flows freely, connecting the two floors and forming a hall / small internal plaza, on the side opposite to the exuberance of natural light on the façade.
