A construction of lively volumetry, translated into the relationship of interior and exterior spaces, creating different living areas depending on the sun, the shadow and the purpose of each space.
An “archway”, located to the West and parallel to the house, takes up the geometry of the complex and reinforces the intimate character of the outdoor spaces connected to the house.
