The House 258 is born of the principle of respect for nature and preserves the existing woods in the terrain. The result is an architecture that, on the one hand, opens at sunset and the surrounding valley, having its facade marked by the golden tones of concrete in the sunlight.

Architect Leonardo Rotsen signs the space with a deeply personal and sensorial concept. Inspired by his life experiences and the desire to honor terracotta in its purest and most contemporary form, Leonardo envisioned a space that celebrates natural elements such as clay, water, and light — a poetic encounter between the rustic and the refined.
