This single-story, L-shaped home features a contemporary, minimalist design aimed at maximizing the connection between the interior and exterior and making efficient use of the available space.
Project Summary
The “L”-shaped layout organizes the home into two wings that define a central outdoor space. This arrangement enhances the privacy of the garden and pool, naturally separating the social and private areas. The “L” shape allows the different areas of the house to have both visual and physical access to the outdoors, maximizing natural light and cross-ventilation.
The main wing of the house houses the living areas, including the open-concept living-dining room, which is connected to the kitchen. Large sliding windows create a seamless transition between the interior and the outdoor terrace.
The secondary wing is reserved for the bedrooms, offering privacy and tranquility. The bedrooms face the garden, ensuring views of the outdoors and maintaining natural light without sacrificing privacy.
The facade features large floor-to-ceiling windows, which not only allow plenty of natural light to enter but also provide direct access to the outdoor areas from virtually every room in the house. The terrace serves as a natural extension of the living area, creating a seamless transition between the interior and the pool.
The home is characterized by the use of contemporary materials, with smooth white facades that contrast with the natural stone cladding in select areas, adding texture and warmth to the design.
The use of stone on the facade serves not only an aesthetic purpose but also a functional one, providing durability and resistance to inclement weather while blending harmoniously with the natural surroundings.
The flat roof design reinforces the contemporary aesthetic, allowing for the installation of technical elements such as solar and ventilation systems without compromising the clean look of the architectural ensemble. The gravel finish contributes to the home’s thermal insulation.
Outdoor Areas: The rectangular pool runs parallel to the house and is surrounded by a paved terrace and a landscaped area. This design maximizes the use of the available land, providing outdoor relaxation areas and unobstructed views from inside.
