Realized by WMR Arquitectos, Casa Till is a lovely residence that welcomes the sun inside all day long. Located on a windswept cliff of Los Arcos (Chile), the house is almost invisible with its all-glass walls and natural colors. As the clients did not want to disturb the natural skyline with their house, a long and low single story wooden construction resulted. The concept was quite simple. The building is shaped with hard angles and straight lines, offering the look of a discreet insertion in the natural scenery. On the roof, a large terrace was installed, built partially on stilts and overhanging the cliff edge. As for the interior design, they opted for minimalist furnishings and decorations. Having the sky and the sea as permanent partner, you let unnecessary items disappear. Thus, one large bed with a comfy mattress represents the bedroom set; built-in cabinets and a long island table accommodates the kitchen; a fireplace and two stools are enough for the living area. Less is more, as fashion designers state all the time.
Locally sourced Pine wood was used as a main building material.
Solar panels provide electricity for this wooden construction.
