We designed the house, opening some beautiful ocean and mountains views. The entrance, and the living spaces invites to come-in and it is organised and rythmed along a spine-wall from the south to the north. The spine-wall is made with local stones , it becomes a soft dark grey wall sometimes pierced to catch the views.
