The name “Casa Libre” is the choice of the owners who worked with our team and who shared their dreams and desires for their permanent home. And why this name for the house? The “house” as a home, around a cosy patio and “Libre” for its transparency, lightness and space of freedom, both architecturally and in actual living.

It touches the floor simply, with a large "U" glazing. An internal curved structural wall that together with the heart of the house (the stairs), builds its interior. The flower petals embrace the...
