IN ALAMEDA LUAR IS THE RESIDENCE, WHICH DOES NOT BY ACCORDANCE RECEIVE THE SAME NAME. ON THE PLOT OF 669m², AND A CHALLENGING SLOPE OF 8M, THE ARCHITECT WAS GIVEN THE MISSION OF DESIGNING A SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY IN THIS CHALLENGING AREA.

​

THE ARCHITECT DECIDED TO DISTRIBUTE THE PROJECT IN 3 DIFFERENT FLOORS, THESE ACCESSING AT THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT LEVEL, THE FIRST FLOOR STRICTLY PRIVATE, AND THE BASEMENT WHICH OCCURS PART SERVICE, PART CONTEMPLATION. THE PROGRAM SEPARATION INTO THESE LEVELS OCCURS SO THAT THE MOST USED ENVIRONMENTS CONTEMPLATE THE LANDSCAPE, WHILE IN THE UNDERGROUND IT ALLOWS DIRECT ACCESS TO THE VEGETABLE AREA IN FRONT OF THE LAND, AS IT IS HIDDEN BY THE PAVEMENTS ABOVE.

​

THE RESIDENCE ADDS VALUE TO THE CONVENIENCE WITH THE EXTERNAL EMBRACE MADE BY THE WOODEN SLATS, AND THE USE OF THE MATERIAL INTERNALLY IN THE CEILINGS, MARRIING THE SIMPLICITY OF THE CONCRETE WITH THE WELCOME OF THE WOOD. THE OPAQUE PLANS GUARANTEE THE PRIVACY OF THE RESIDENCE IN RELATION TO THE ENTRANCE ROAD, AND THE TRANSPARENT FLOOR-TO-CEILING PLANS RECEIVE A FULL VISUAL CONNECTION WITH NATURE THAT PRIVILETES THE TERRAIN IN ALL ITS VISUAL EXTENSION.
