The house, consisting of three floors, fits the topography of the site, which together with its configuration were the main conditioning factors in the drafting of this project.
The use of hand-placed stone on the basement wall reinforces the idea of foundation, where the rest of the construction settles. The house features a predominance of white plaster and wooden panels, whose vertical rhythm contrasts with the horizontal marking of the slabs.
