One challenge of the project was to adapt the construction to the small area available for construction. As the lot is on the corner, much area was lost due to legal recalls and for this reason it was necessary to make the garage in a lower level.

A heavy, rough-looking base resembling a large stone representing aggressive human occupation of nature, and a light white \”shell\” that overlaps this block representing the harmonious occupation of man with nature. This overlapping reflects our desire as architects that life in harmony with nature is the model that prevails in the region.

In the three dormitories facing the street, the solution to guarantee the privacy was to adopt windows with windows taller than the conventional one. The exterior openings and glass cloths were designed to get the best use of ventilation and natural lighting.

The finishing materials associated with the geometry of straight lines of the house give the project a contemporary and minimalist look.
