The house is located in Villa Adelina, a neighborhood in the north area of Buenos Aires suburbs where great commercial activities, industries and housing coexist. The construction is close to the street in a lot where a prefabricated house already occupies the central area of it. The characteristics of the buildings nearby, determine the position of the new house. An industrial building generates towards one side a 10 meters height division wall that is used to structure lengthwise the house while orientating all the interior spaces towards the garden of the opposite field. A metal tray runs all along the structure length, becoming a shell for new vegetation that gazes from the inside and seems to merge with the neighboring garden.
