Article source: Philippe Game Arquitectura Fa house is a project with a privileged location in the top of a hill located in the coastal mountain range. This location allows a panoramic view to the central valley of Chile in the East, with its main glaciers and mountains, such as Mt. Aconcagua (6.962 msnm) and Mt. El Plomo (5.424 msnm), and the Pacific Ocean looking to the west. Even if this location provides a panoramic view, its gets strong winds from the South and the North.

The north face is the one affected by heavy rain, as the same time that receives the solar radiation. A wood gallery covered by a glass wall protects the structure as the same time it’s let the sun came into the interior. The south face of the project, which is affected by strong winds called “surazo” was protected by cutting the terrain, making a shadow wind zone.

A modular wood structure repeats with the main elements such as gallery, wall, and beams. The concrete soil captures the heat to release it in the night, and its gets coated depending on the use of each sector of the house, intermediate and exterior spaces with local rocks, and wood in the interior to get a warm sensation.
