Article source: Agraz Arquitectos The G House layout departs from the site’s recognition and also from the willingness to conquer the terrain after understanding its solar paths. From the basement garage come all the service areas and house equipment, giving its dwellers the possibility of independent worlds within the place.  Image Courtesy © Mito Covarrubias

Following this axis, a fountain is placed in the same level, generating a visual effect of a water ending platform which also gives direct ways for light and kitchen ventilation.

These allow a sharp flow of light lines that work as a solar watch where time passes by.

Main bedroom, also in this floor, enjoys the wide rights of way as well as the abundant vegetation of the main avenue of its location. This place, as does the television room in the first floor, gain privacy from a wooden rack that controls the intensity of solar radiation due to its obstructing capacities.
