A privileged place within amazing slope near Giblartar city center is the starting point of this project.
The proposal is drawn with elliptical traces which contain the program and maximize the possibilities of local urban law by minimizing the volumetric impact on the site.
Thus, a piece with a continuous façade that seems to lodge only one floor is set on the site. The aerodynamic visuals of it guide the eye towards the deepness of the neighbouring landscape.
The volume is placed leaving as much free surface as possible towards the southern edge of the plot for it to be used as a garden, while the sloped limits are blurred with vegetation. The other elements that compose the urbanization resemble the curved nature of the place’s topography.
The scale of the house is moderated through the understanding of the day area as a base emerging from the same natural stone which paves part of the plot.
