We like to think of this house located in the center of Madrid as an interpretation of this element, which also grants privacy to the house from neighboring buildings. The rooms open out to the interior space, the opposing spaces allow an axial vision throughout the plot.

With this mechanism it is sought that the house meets the duality of having a very open spatiality and simultaneously a bounded perception of space.

This element allows to have a wide exterior space whose shadow evolves throughout the day. Inside this area there is a water sheet located at the only point of the place where the distant views escape above the neighboring houses.

Its position on the northern part of the plot allows for the creation of an entry courtyard.

The extension of the interior pavement, which transitions into a terrace and ultimately a pool, outlines a sort of cloister. This, together with the interior of the house, forms a square area, intentionally classic in its design. Internally, the layout is divided between the overlapping area in the north and a section that extends on the ground floor in the west.

The materiality serves as a blank canvas that allows it to stand the test of time without becoming obsolete. A project sketched years ago, that continues to satisfy us today.
