The site chosen for this house is located in the highest part of a set of hills that look out over the sea of Punta de Lobos. The Landscape is dominated by vast green meadows with the Pacific Ocean as a backdrop.<\/p>\n
The house is located on a 34×31 site, exposed to the south winds and with a steep slope, in a condominium with a height restriction of only 1 floor above the natural ground. The challenge resulted in building a 174m2 house on a single floor that would guarantee panoramic views to the south and at the same time protect its inhabitants from the prevailing winds of the area.<\/p>\n
The solution found was to develop a house with a compact and staggered plant, topped by a large upper plane as a roof, which accompanies the natural slope of the land to minimize the visual impact on the environment. The house is actually two independent houses linked by a strip of circulation and services, allowing the owners to have more flexibility of use. Finally, the house has a circulation on the south fa\u00e7ade, where the walls are prevented from reaching the glass on the fa\u00e7ade, turning this sector into a true internal gallery that allows the space to be transformed into an authentic viewpoint that amplifies the perception of the landscape from inside.
