An important element in the work philosophy of Penelope de la Madrid, from Ábaka Interiores, is respect for the spaces to be intervened. Intuition is the formula for flowing between scales and styles, delving into the emotions and senses of those who live in the spaces, creating memorable experiences.

This intention is reflected in its architecture through an envelope of thick walls that acts as a second skin, protecting from views towards a densely planned area.

The intention of this project is deeply rooted in the understanding of the site as an opportunity to create a sense of place. The house is not perceived as an imposed object but as a tool to uncover the natural events and manifestations specific to the context. The placement of the modules sets a high priority on the disposition of outdoor areas.
