Rather than delicately resting into the landscape, pretending that it could be easily dismantled in the future, House X embraces its invasive, almost parasitic nature. It fully integrates into the environment, aiming, through its abstract design and materiality, to become an inseparable part of the landscape.

Two oak trees, a sheet of water and the horizon are the pre-existing elements in this plot, which influence the position and formal configuration of the house. The presence of this vegetation in the foreground, and the Pedrezuela Reservoir in the background, forces the house's floor plan to adjust its geometry to these elements.
