Moon House is located in Ojochal, a place surrounded by dense forest and favored with great ocean views.The House was created for the Shivji family from India, who were looking for an experimental space that allows them to enjoy a ludic and healthy atmosphere. To solve their needs it was necessary the use of bioclimatic strategies that help along with the energy efficiency and thermal comfort needed.
