P Valle

​

Topography of the plot dictated the architecture for this complex of two houses.

The first house consists of two bodies profiting from the land original terraces towards the lake.  The volumes separate, via a garden, the private from the social areas. The roof of the lower body contains a an endemic species garden, that provides views and privacy to the bedrooms, as well as a refuge for polinizing birds and insects.  All spaces have views of the lake, natural light and ventilation .The design is consistent with the energy saving and resource preservation criteria of the studio. Harvesting and purifying rainwater, treating residues and generating energy with solar panels.
