The “El Limón” development is located in the Lake Chapala area, famous for having one of the best climates in the world, with mountain scenery and a close relationship with the lake.
In a plot of 962 m2 with a significant slope and a clear visual axis (mountain-lake), the terrace-house arises from the need for a weekend residence that will eventually become permanent for a retired couple who can entertain, and for which an outdoor space as a terrace was required.
The house is placed on the highest part of the land, where there is the best view of the lake, and it is designed on a single level, respecting the maximum allowable height in the area.
The base and the bush-hammered oxidized concrete roof in combination with the wooden prisms, support the directionality of the space.
