Thehouse is concentrated towards the southeast boundary, creating access to the most attractive landscapes and correct sun exposure.

It provides privacy to each individual section of the house.

These platforms surround the courtyard and have different uses and atmospheres.

The common terrace and balcony establish a relationship with the garden and courtyard on the ground floor, together forming a linear sequence of open spaces.
