House EM
Cieneguilla, Peru
The L-shaped house develops its façade toward the north. A band of pigmented concrete forms the central axis, beginning at the garden terrace, running through the house, and then extending outward to shape and enclose the main façade on the second floor. This skin receives direct sunlight, which is used to the house’s advantage: perforations in the concrete allow ochre-toned light to filter in, tinting the atmosphere of the interior spaces. Above, the glazed gallery functions as a Trombe wall, a solar heat-gain system placed in front of the children’s bedrooms: in summer, the gallery remains ventilated and protects the rooms from the sun; in winter, it stores heat and keeps the house warm while still allowing sunlight to pass through.
The site slopes downward from front to back. The first floor is stepped across four levels, following the natural contours of the land, with a maximum level difference of 1.25 meters. Thanks to this, from the entrance above, the rest of the site can be seen. The house also offers different circulation paths: one can enter directly into the garden and barbecue area, or move through the interior of the social area. On the second floor, a bridge connects to the main bedroom. From there, the view overlooks the entire house.
