The dwellings are internally organised around consecutive courtyards and terraces, which are orientated to the southeast ensuring sunlight and a sheltered area. The facade has been designed as a solid massing in which delicates pleats and folds emphasize access points whilst allowing natural light when you enter the building.

The green shaded courtyard works as a lobby. As soon as you enter the dwelling, a combined living, dining and kitchen is opened to the internal courtyard. A drying space, a wc and a multi use bedroom are located at ground floor, and a bathroom and two bedrooms at first level.
