Designed by Eduardo Hernandez Ch, this project is located in Valle de Bravo lake in Mexico, the project is located on a steep slope, and with boundaries irregular in its geometry.
Bordered by a brook of clear water and by the lake itself, at one very narrow end there is a bridge that provides the only access to the site; the remaining sides are limited by the vegetation of neighbouring constructions and by thick forest. The house was designed to provide the best views for the public spaces in a horizontal arrangement, and for the private quarters in a vertical disposition.The cuts and stalls on the terrain are resolved using walls of stone from the area. Other lighter elements are built from poured concrete or brick to divide spaces, and glass paneling is placed where the views so require. The flooring is a lightened concrete system over steel and wooden beams. Though blessed with beautiful views to the lake and to the brook, the site does not offer up these sights at first glance; they can only be seen from different levels of the terrain and through the surrounding forest.
