3. Viewpoint House
Ecuador
Viewpoint House is strategically located on a slope with a negative inclination, seeking to achieve a balance that maximizes visual connections with the landscape. At the same time, it provides optimal orientation to the solar facades.
The site's pronounced topography and endemic natural ecosystem enhance the project's positioning and approach strategy.
The combination of natural conditions, such as the steep topography with a negative slope, the natural environment, the exclusive approach from the upper side, the panoramic views of the Andean mountain range and the valley, the prevailing wind vectors and the analysis of solar irradiation, objectively parameterized, gives rise to a housing system that differs from the conventional one. This architecture coexists and harmonizes with the natural environment, offering a wide array of panoramic views that engage inhabitants throughout their daily lives.
Geometrically, the project is composed of three programmatic pavilions articulated by two horizontal connecting elements. The central pavilion is hierarchized by differentiation and expressed as a box with all its edges exploited, generating a unique sensory perception in the inhabitants as they interact with both horizontal and vertical floating planes.
The project's materiality is crafted to reinforce the idea that the architecture is carefully positioned within the natural ecosystem, appearing to float above the slope. To achieve this, the ground floor is conceived as a plinth of volcanic stone that emerges from the ground to support lightweight volumes that float above it.
The upper floor is developed as floating pavilions that are suspended above the ground, intended to remain free and precisely oriented to enhance visual relationships with the panoramic landscape.
The architectural result invites inhabitants to engage in a range of sensory experience, appreciate the endemic nature of the immediate surroundings, and contemplate a panoramic landscape, all while architecture and nature coexist in perfect harmony.
