The site is dominated by a large laurel and a coihue, in addition to preexisting rocks. The north orientation is located towards the upper level of this plateau, from where the winds and rain come in winter, while the south is towards the access and the neighboring site, from where the prevailing winds come in summer.

From this gesture, the volume of the 3 level house is created. Program The house seeks to accommodate 3 family generations, which is why the project makes use of the underground, where a bedroom / workshop and a bathroom are located, which also forms a concrete base that isolates the wooden structure from the ground.

Meanwhile, on the second level there are four bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom located to the south and the others to the north joined by a bridge that balcones the double height of the main living space. This bridge has upper windows that provide light and sun in the afternoon. Materiality As previously mentioned, a concrete base is proposed where a wooden structure modulated in a 122 cm grid is supported. Inside the house is covered with boards of mañio in walls and tepa in floors. In addition, black slate stone is used in the access and wet areas – bathrooms and kitchen. On the outside, the east façade is covered in a brown toned Northway fiber cement while the curved wall is covered in pre-painted black zinc, both with its corresponding ventilated air chamber.
