Article source: blancafort-reus arquitectura This house located on a large terrace on the south side of a hill in La Garriga, Barcelona; with views over the village, it is distinguished by its two porches: – The porch to south, allows a solar control, protecting the large windows of the room, and offering an extension area of the living room in transition to the garden. – The porch to north, is used to park vehicles comfortably outside.

The rooms are situated to the east, next to the playground and around the yard, adapting the shape of the windows to enhance views.

The library is the body that shades south porch.
