We wanted a balance between the craftsmanship of the stone façade and the modernity of its interior. A massive and heavy exterior, sculpted in stone, as opposed to a bright and voluminous interior that would also frame the landscape thanks to its almost museum-like openings.

The initial premise of this residential project was that it be located in the highest part of the lot, to make the most of the views towards the western mountains. With a positive slope of more than 35%, it was necessary to generate a ramp for vehicular access, this ramp crosses the front of the lot diagonally.
