It is a house based on a square 3x3 grid where the stairs and the circulation in the upperfloor are located in the center. On the ground floor, to avoid corridors, the rooms are connected to achieve as much space and light as possible. Taking advantage of the long views towards the golf course, we located the living room and dining room.

The Project is located in the municipality of Zapopan, Jalisco. Developed within a private subdivision, near the Bosque de la Primavera, an important urban lung, this house emerges from a land that naturally presented a great unevenness, so that the project required thinking about front and rear facades with the same importance.
