The house and the land was abandoned for the last 30 years, so it suffered deterioration because of time. We made the decision to renovate it.
The project consisted in a restoration of the house for its use for tourists looking for a rural environment. The land was also restored so it could be exploited as an organic farm. Both activities should be achieved in parallel, so the property may also be enjoyed by visitors.
The functional program is adapted to the conditions of the existing building, performing minor adaptations necessary to ensure a level of comfort possible use without changing the essential typological aspects of the historic building. So housing is resolved into two separate plants that allow a family or two couples use with certain independence between them.
The top floor can be used to that family use, a couple with two children, distributed with a bathroom, a kitchen and a living room dining room outdoor patio that acts as an extension of the living room.
Independent of the previous, lower level can be used for a second couple or an older child. It has a bedroom with double bed and bathroom, mini kitchen, breakfast room, and private terrace.
Management solution set is completed with the remodeling of the old irrigation pond, making a pool designed for that since she can participate in the views of the environment and enhances the integration of new applications while respecting the historical structure of the implementation, along with the rehabilitation of walls, paths and terraces set. Water treatment is performed with an advanced filtration and chlorination disinfection by salt, without damage to the skin and minimal environmental impact.
The opening of a new access road to the farm, which also allows access to people with disabilities was also performed.
The undoubted interest of the building was based on the simplicity of its volume inserted into the landscape, the clarity of its distribution, the height of its interior spaces, the value of its exterior and interior trim and the interest of the geometric and colorful inner hydraulic flooring.
The outdoor gallery seems to have been designed, from the beginning, as if it were an interior space, since it acts as general distributor of the house and has the same flooring in the interior. Thus, completing its closing operation, no effect of distortion typological.
