The limited space -105 m2 lot – poses a vertical development of the program which is divided into four levels. The house has a first floor dedicated to service, in the second has been developed the social area, the third was located in the master bedroom and the fourth are the bedrooms of children.
Involved on a skin playing with transparencies, housing generates dynamism around the program. A relationship of transparency and opacity depending on the landscape and the program is then raised, opening the social and private areas of the house overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
