Located in a flood prone residential area with a ground floor three meters high compared to street level. This project leveraged the property’s assets opening itself towards the south-west, composed of two protruding pure volumes. Large windows, glass and operable screens with different degrees of transparency, opacity and reflection variates depending in the desired privacy respecting the functional needs of the family and the natural characteristics of the surroundings. The simple choice of materials, together with a stone base, exposed concrete and pure volume, was another strategy to keep the design in tune with the site and the environment.
