Rigorously defined by its outlines, the volume accomodates nine cubic spaces of 4.2-meter sides which serve different domestic uses, from sitting rooms and bedrooms to the kitchen, with the closets and bathrooms placed in between. Each of those spaces comprises two layers: a lower one clad with oakwood boards where the building services are placed; and an upper stratum formed by a through of white concrete and completely free of mechanisms. The rooms open on to the exterior landscape through large oak-framed windows of square proportions. An open platform at the back features a swimming pool.

With its 16-meter sides, the square-plan house contains nine rooms, and is built on the outside with walls of local quartzite stone detailed with granite, and on the inside with white concrete and oakwood claddings.
