The sustainability and eco-architecture platform Ecoinventos has recently published an article dedicated to the Dominio D’Echauz Winery, a project that proposes an intervention fully integrated into its surroundings, where architecture disappears to allow the landscape to take precedence.
The article highlights how the building is embedded into the topography without imposition, respecting the terrain’s morphology and using the earth itself as an envelope. This approach helps optimize energy efficiency, improve interior thermal conditions, and reduce the visual impact of the structure within the natural setting of Castilla y León.
The publication also emphasizes the use of passive temperature control systems, low-impact materials, and natural light as the primary compositional strategy. In the words of the studio, this is an architecture that emerges from the place and for the place, maintaining a constant dialogue with the landscape, materiality, and light.
The winery not only meets the functional requirements of wine production but also offers a sensory and spatial experience for its visitors. From the entrance to the tasting room, the journey is designed as a sequence of spaces that combine technical precision with poetic sensitivity.
