An illustration of the cultural landscape assessment of the house.
The proposal integrates the three most classic typologies of sloping roofs, the cabin , the barn and the covered house , each with unique characteristics that differentiate them from each other; to function and create a new reference that despite being the repetition of the orthodox archetype develops a new identity in the context thanks to this integration. This same differentiation is made in the application of materials and colors, thereby generating a marked pattern between the volumes.
The three volumes wrap the main functions with each skin. The covered, extruded house covers the functions of circulations and connections both in plan and in section, stairs, distributors, common areas and hall; The cabin for its part rigorously covers the three secondary bedrooms, their bathrooms and dressing rooms; the void generated by the collision of these two volumes gives rise to the service and patio areas; And the third volume, the barn , creates a very simple ceiling with only supports at the ends to free up the largest possible area on the ground floor for social areas and on the upper floor for the master bedroom and its dependencies, with this release of the structure the uninterrupted views are directed towards the garden, the terrace and ultimately the golf course.
