The CASA ESCONDIDA is inserted into a curved geometry terrain on one of its edges at the access level, and its topography presents an unevenness from the street with several meters, which is why the social spaces of the house are located below at the level of the main garden. Access is to a lobby from where a transparent space can be seen through the glass corridors that travel along the metal structures that support the house, a wide staircase goes down to the rooms and we discover a main space that houses the living room, dining room, bar, family room, breakfast area, terraces, library, kitchen and various services.
The main hall is between gardens, with great height and windows on both sides. The staircase goes down loose from the walls as if it were floating with its granite steps.
The rooms are located at street level and all facing south with their private terraces. They all have their integrated bathroom and dressing room services in each one.
At basement level we have a garage for 12 cars, machine rooms, cisterns, warehouses, a game room and a gym with its dressing room and bathroom.
The house is built with a metal structure and concrete walls, which allows us to clear large spans and large overhangs. In all its volume, the house is lined inside and outside with Basaltic stone. On the main facade you can see rolled metal beams with the curve of the street, making an overhang that protects the volumes of light Oak vertical strips.
The large cover that covers the entire construction is lined with Oak wood that comes out from the interiors to the exterior to the perimeter edges of the roofs.
The house has a monochromatic stone coating palette in shades of gray, which allowed us to have a large neutral canvas to receive furniture with different textures, coatings and colors. The selection of all furniture was selected carefully and it seems that the space was designed to receive them since the scale and disposition fit perfectly with architecture.
All infrastructure of the house is state-of-the-art in terms of water and electricity management. The systems are intelligent and allow maximum use of these resources. We have photovoltaic solar panels and water heating. Lighting is low consumption and in every way we have saving systems. The windows and glasses are totally insulating and allow the conservation of the temperature.
