Surface 450m2
Renovation
The construction of terraces in the slope harvest run off and form soil to grow an oasis of exotic plants in this extreme landscape. The house is integrated in the hydraulic space protecting with its form the more sensitive species, plants and bodys form the Tramontana northern wind and the outside looks. In the center, the pond organizes the surrounding activities. Limits between interior and exterior spaces blur, and architecture turns into a big stepped porch under the shadow that looks to the sea.
