monasterios house
Valencia, Valencian Community, Spain
Type
YEAR
2012
SIZE
25,000 sqft - 100,000 sqft
The house
is located in “Los Monasterios” residential area, by the Calderona mountains,
in Valencia, Spain. The plot is placed in a high position and there are sea
views everywhere. The plot faces houses
to the north and west sides, the mountain to the east side and the great sea
views and Valencia’s gulf to the south.
The house
emerges from the mountain where it is placed as a bunch of stone volumes.
The main
entrance of the plot is placed in the north-east corner, the highest spot. A granite tile’s path leads the visitor to
the main entrance of the house, delimited by vegetation and stone volumes.
One of the
principal targets of the project is the contrast between the north façade and
the main entrance of the house. While the north façade is massive and tectonic,
the entrance hall is light and illuminated. The hall is a triple-height space
and there is a big window facing the main door, so the breathtaking views are
present from the entrance door.
At this
moment the house composition is easy to understand: compact volumes in the
north and west sides, an open façade orientated south facing the sea, and the
east façade with some openings facing the mountain. The main objective is to
have views to the sea and the mountain all the time.
The
entrance hall is the virtual axis of the house: it is a triple-height space
where the staircase is located. Besides, it is the link of the three floors of
the house, which is distributed from this point. There is a big window by the
staircase, so the sea views are present all the time. This space is also
connected to the big front terrace where the infinity pool is placed.
The
distribution is easy: day-activities rooms placed in the ground floor and night-activities
rooms in the upper floor. Living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry room,
toilet and office are located in the ground floor. Three double bedrooms, one
bathroom, master bedroom with bathroom and dressing room facing the mountain
and the sea in the upper floor.
There is a
big beam in the south side, used to join the volumes in compositional terms.
This beam is also used to bear the terrace ceiling and it gives privacy to the
bedrooms, despite the fact that all of them have a façade made out of a big
window.
The basement
has a guest bedroom with bathroom, big playroom, cinema room, wine cellar and garage with box room and toilet.
