Project Featured on Apr 08, 2014
Located in Altavista subdivision, at the mouth of the valley Catapilco, this project represents an austere housing solution for a second home. The assignment from a producer and director required a good deal of innovation for high quality and low cost solutions. That is why the root of the project arises from a basic geometric figure "The Rectangle", which allows a simple location of the house in the area, taking into account the orientation and the views, and solves the small program in a very easy way, separating the bedrooms from the service spaces by the living room.
Its also basic structure consists of a main wooden truss which diagonally crosses the 5 x 20 meters plant. As it progresses towards its midpoint decreases in section, generating two triangular covers.
Like a fishing boat, the coastal holding these covers are anchoring from the perimeter to this central beam that acts as a backbone.
For the envelope an asphalt membrane was choosen because of its simplicity and low maintenance, which also allows us to generate a continuous coating for the volume.
