Description:

After over 40 years of getting a charge out of the shoreline, the jackasses, the slope trails and coastline of Cachagua numerous progressions have happened. The adjustments in traditions, construction modeling, the utilization of open spaces, and the entry of brand and bank promoting in the town of Cachagua, a standout amongst the most lovely places in the nation, drove us to discover new place where quiet, the scene, the individual and group fairness were organized.

We exited the Fifth Region North and touched base at the Fifth Region South, drawing nearer to the coastline, looking all the more carefully at the waves, rocks and seagulls.

The scene of Tunquén of our home, situated in Punta del Gallo, one hour and fourty-five minutes from Santiago, is phenomenal. We appreciate the territory so much that we arrive as frequently as possible, in light of the fact that in this isolation we discover our being and improvement, committing ourselves to perusing, composing, watching, strolls and talks.

We envisioned the house venture Mirador, raised from the territory, which permits us to see both the area and the ocean without a moment’s delay.

On account of its area and construction modeling, the house can be seen from far away both from the field and from the coast, highlighting the fundamental floor upheld by a littler base volume, demonstrating symmetrical cantilevered ranges.

The engineering idea mirrors the memory of three visits to the Villa Savoye in Paris planned by Le Corbusier, a venture of a late spring house that Andre Wogensky approached me to outline for a Parisian legal advisor, situated on the Mediterranean coast. This undertaking, the configuration of 25 houses Serfacoop in Las Condes, and the Rotonda House in Peñalolén Alto all utilization an essential geometry, a sunlight based introduction and correspondence with the site.

The Mirador house ascends from the beginning to the principle floor by a slope, and is included a substantial meeting space joined with two patios that open to the ocean and the field individually on inverse sides, and two divisions on both sides.

The focal point of the considerable space is a twofold stature range through which daylight enters amid the morning and the night, and through which you may exit by means of a winding staircase to the rooftop porch from which commands the whole region.

The principle floor portrayed depends on a base volume where a changing room and restroom is housed, for the individuals who go outdoors or swimming at the beach.
