Other Projects by Vicca Verde
House LD
Lima, Peru
REQUIREMENTS – The idea was to enhance natural lighting and ventilation (with skylights in staircases and bathrooms), and to create a highly functional, low-maintenance home—using high-traffic flooring and exposed concrete walls. Sustainability was also a key priority: all the wood used in the project was recycled from demolition materials.
SITE – The house is located in the heart of the city, in the San Isidro district, very close to the ocean.
CONCEPT – The existing house was originally designed by architect Malachowski in 1956. Previous owners had made some additions that altered the original architecture. The aim was to recover and highlight the original design. To do this, a key premise was to clearly distinguish the new from the old, using different materials such as exposed concrete, composite slabs, and visible metal structures, giving the new additions an industrial look.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION – The house reflects a style known as Neo-Peruvian, which was popular at the time. Its most distinctive features are the split-level entrance and the inclined walls on the second floor, which evoke the entrance and adobe walls of a huaca (a sacred pre-Columbian structure).
