R79: Discovering a sober house that poses a blind volumetry from the exterior, hiding from the street the richness that dwells inside. A continuous space full of light that merges the indoor and outdoor social areas. Made up by a palette of materials that emanates tranquility; where wood, stone and glass are complemented by the furniture and art, specially the last one which has a strong presence throughout the house accentuating the finishing touches and achieving flashes of color that enliven the atmosphere.

A simple program: downstairs; the services, the social areas and the spaces whose function varies according to the mood of the moment: the kitchen and the bar. Upstairs; the private areas that views all the way to the back of the lot, keeping its services towards the front, conferring this almost martial character to the facade. A new essay on how to blur the line between the exterior and the interior, an adventure with a great team of architects and interior designers to achieve this simple and harmonic piece for a very dear friend.
