The house is like a modern container such as the first generation of Le Corbusier’s projects, where natural materials like stone, marble and wood were used. The upper floor was worked as a box made of glass, from there you can have a privilege landscape treatment and the exterior lighting can be graduated for different social situations.

The first floor was thought as a drilling container with a higher roof so the interior sensation could be as good as the upper floor. The main idea was to create a different proposal with codes of difficult recognition so the house could get older with the owners. The whole house has different types of references, achieving a modern eclecticism but trying to belong to an alternative future.
