The plot, an irregularly shaped land with gentle slopes, is positioned at a privileged elevation, offering breathtaking views of both the Atlantic coastline and the surrounding rural landscape, where agricultural fields stretch over rolling green hills.
The design aimed to ensure optimal solar exposure for the interior spaces, while simultaneously shielding the exterior areas from the strong winds characteristic of the western coastal strip.
The building's volumetry features a lower floor in the shape of an "L", which opens generously towards the south-facing garden and pool, embracing the landscape and creating an intimate, sheltered space. The upper floor, with its simpler form, acts as a roof for the building, oriented northeast, providing expansive views without compromising privacy.
The main facade, with more regular and sober lines, deliberately contrasts with the facade facing the garden, which reveals a more fluid and organic structure, in dialogue with the surrounding nature.
A roofed pergola, supported by natural limestone walls, defines the shaded outdoor spaces and gives the architectural ensemble a unified appearance.
Inside, the ground floor offers a seamless flow between spaces, with the living room, dining room, kitchen, and a bedroom all opening directly to the outside, allowing a continuous interaction between the internal spaces and the surrounding landscape. The upper floor is reserved for the master bedroom, a private retreat equipped with a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom.
In addition to the main building, there is a planned annex for storage and technical areas, connected to the main structure by a landscaped courtyard, creating a smooth transition between the spaces.
The outdoor area is designed to be a true extension of the interior of the house. Near the pool, seating areas with continuous concrete benches invite relaxation and contemplation, while the natural limestone retaining wall provides a sense of solidity and continuity, creating an organic connection with the land.
