In the upper floor the position of the house as a cross takes into consideration security in the rooms inside of the site as it uncovered a base front towards the road.

The undertaking sought to make a house where the communication of this powers incite an exotic and passionate experience of diverse spatial conditions.

We sought to make an exquisite answer for the state of livability incorporating the patio nursery to the house in a path in which the family room turns out to be a piece of the greenery enclosure scene, making an easygoing space that is open, tranquil and coordinated to the outside in a route in which diverges from the day by day experience of the city.
