The project for this weekend house in the field is divided in two parts: an open glass volume that welcomes and is open to the sights and public service in the house, and enclosed volume in stone that protects the rooms (the intimal area), the permeability of the volumes is designed according to the level of privacy of the enclosures.

The space contained in the public loses its materiality to the outside of the property creating a constant dialogue with the landscape from within the limits of space extending out of the house, "the house is part of the field and the field is part of the home" to intensify the spatial fluidity to the fullest. The construction is adapted to the conditions of the place, looking for the best views and guidance expands their limits in public spaces and ensures privacy in private.

Both volumes were resolved with a different structural system and at different heights, the intimal area has partitions that configure the spaces contained in this area and the public area was resolved in an open floor plan with ribbed slab, slender metal columns. Above the zone volume publishes the home features a panoramic terrace open allowing for panoramic views of the city and countryside.

Taking advantage of the natural slope of the property, we locates the house in the highest part privileging the spectacular views of the site, the access to the house is determined based platforms and stairways creating a path that connects the various outdoor spaces in the house: a place for social events, a bonfire area and the terraces of the public area and intimal área.

In this project we use materials in harmony with the environment does not affect the image looking site. Natural stone, exposed concrete and rusted, wood and steel make the materiality of the house discreetly and in balance with the context
