SIZE

In collaboration with Interior Designer Micaela de Bernardí, a pair of two-story houses that are exceptionally efficient in terms of energy, due to the use of natural light. They are located on a couple of adjacent lots that are also very steep, which is ideal for achieving the best views of the Valle de Bravo Lake.
The materials used in construction and in finishes, along with a functional design, make sure the project is in perfect harmony with nature. Green roofing, local stone, and the façade lattice made out of specially-treated wooden slats all contribute to the houses full integration into the landscape.
Entry to the complex occurs through an access plaza, with bodies of water and vegetation that gives continuity with the natural environment.
Once inside, private areas take up the lower floor, while social areas take up the upper floor. A skylight connects both stories.
Users gain access through a lobby that acts as a distributing space into the main living room, service kitchen and the staircase that leads to the lower floor.
The main living room contains a black steel fireplace that contrasts with the oak employed on floors, walls and ceilings. Next to it, the dining room and a kitchen. Finally, there is a covered terrace, with an open living and dining rooms.. Next is a fully open terrace with a swimming lane.
On the lower level we first reach a lobby, a family room and a play area. A hallway that surrounds the skylight leads to a gym and the bedrooms.
On the lots’ lower sections there is a common area with terraces, a swimming pool, a gym, kitchen with a pizza oven, dressing rooms and a small spa.
These houses together form a biological corridor. The service areas, as well as children’s areas, edible forest and fireplace are all in adjacent areas.
