Residential › Private House

This is a private residence located in the upper valley of the Rimac river in Perú. The site, on the hillside, provided an opportunity to explore volumetric arrangements. This, combined with the will of the client to provide a calm, private place for him to retire, gave rise to a contrast between two stories. The first acts as a retaining wall, supporting the landscape and blending with it. The second, and the client's private quarters, opposes the landscape and is projected towards the valley, allowing the complete enjoyment of the countryside.
