On a beautiful plot marked by its position in the middle of an immense agricultural terrain with views to Sierra Nevada comes the commission for designing a home for a young sports enthusiast professional.

The commission presented a clear program in which the main dwelling would add a second home – apartment that would serve to houseguests or for a possible extension of the main structure in the future. A large gym for promoter use and an area for his mother’s garden characterize the residential space available.
