Bitelhaus is a house located on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, designed to encapsulate the essence of a weekend retreat: low maintenance, a seamless connection with the outdoors, and the ability to easily open and close the space.

Nestled in a lush green area, the house is oriented perpendicularly to the street, maximizing northeast exposure in the living areas and creating a landscape where a pre-existing araucaria and an elm take center stage.

The design features a linear volume constructed from white pre-painted sheet metal, equipped with a system of mobile panels that address our key design principles. The spaces are organized with equal importance, forming a sequence of environments that maintain a direct relationship with the outdoors, incorporating semi-covered areas as flexible spaces.

This linear configuration also facilitates climate control through effective cross ventilation. In front of the main living area, a pergola adorned with deciduous leaves creates an inviting outdoor space, providing shade in the summer while allowing for passive solar gain in the winter.

The sliding panels not only shield the interiors from morning light and enhance nighttime insulation but also allow the house to be completely sealed when not in use.

The barrel vaults feature varied curvatures to create distinct environments, optimizing light entry and air circulation, while establishing a rhythmic flow throughout the interior.

A weekend house is intended to enhance enjoyment of outdoor spaces during leisure time and social gatherings. This is why the connection between interior and exterior is emphasized in every area. The house is accessed through an intermediate space: the gallery, which serves as a connector for all the spaces, linking the garden, living room, and multipurpose space/garage.
