Article source: CRISTIAN ALVARADO ESPINOZA A Break on the hill The order is a second home for a family on the slopes of a hill located in the southern sector of Laguna Aculeo, Paine. The conditions of the terrain with an angle of 30 degrees create the following problem: How, in addition to accommodating the traditional program, is the family reunion generated and possible?

Thus, the landscape is an excuse and a backdrop for daily acts. The construction protects but emphasizes and reinforces the idea of dominance.

Image Courtesy © CRISTIAN ALVARADO ESPINOZA  Image Courtesy © CRISTIAN ALVARADO ESPINOZA The first volume is entered by the upper part of the site reaching level with it. This is arranged perpendicular to the street so does not obstruct the view of the surrounding hills, and also generates that the work is perceived smaller in size, scaling, accompanying and not interrupting. Inside, the kitchen, dining room and living room (in that order from the entrance) share a single space that projects and finishes off a large window that frames the landscape. Its perimeter opens onto the backyard contained by the pool, which will be protected from the wind by the second volume.

In addition to the terrace and the space for the patio/pool, this volume creates in its lower part a more intimate balcony for the bedrooms, creating an open and covered outdoor circulation. Above, the large terrace is an extension of the living room and the patio, projecting the views over the nearby roofs towards the lagoon.
