The program included a terrace, a large dining area /, bedroom and guest room. Customers condition imposed as seen from the outside inside.
The solution was to assign each level of the home part of the program. Because each plant has different dimensions to suit the corresponding use.
The outer shape of the house emerges linking the perimeter of each floor. In this way, not the front corners of the wrought-90 °, but are tilted allowing different points of view from the house.
