Anapanasati House
Tamarindo, Costa Rica

Type
STATUS
Built
YEAR
2012
SIZE
5000 sqft - 10,000 sqft
This is a house located in the
middle of the dry forest of Guanacaste, Costa Rica, a place that used to be a
cattle ranch. The work began with the reforestation of the property and
selecting the right location of the house: The topography, wind, views and
orientation were considered very carefully in that matter.
Due to the absence of natural
shadow and the lengthy dry season, we conceptualized the space as a folding
surface that is separated from the ground, creating a more confortable living
space under its protection.
The house consists in a core of
double height that contains the central living area. From here, it’s possible
to have views to the surroundings 360°, and also this space connects the rest
of the program: three bedrooms, a entertainment room, dinning and kitchen, and
two terraces.
We have design a tropical space in
its essence: necessity of shadow, natural ventilation, low-tech construction,
integration with the natural context, open and outdoor spaces... just to
mention some strategies. What differences this house is the spatial
configuration: how to be local but not conventional! The space flows through every part of the house, adding particular
complexities in each room, and creating the sense of place.
