The setting of the project is a plot with steep slopes and a great amount of trees and bushes. The aim is building a house without causing any serious impacts on the land. The house will be built on a natural rocky platform. The architects and the property developers have agreed on minimizing land movements in order to build the artificial landscaped platforms. The house can work as an open-plan space or as individual, closed spaces.

The two struts will lay the foundations of the house on the rock. These two struts will also create a space permanently ventilated between the house and the rocky ground. The house will be built with a structure of laminated wood in large KLH panels, which will be used on walls and ceilings. This system works as a diffuse structure with neither hierarchy nor a Cartesian structure of load bearing walls, but as a whole structure working together. The arches will articulate the geometry of the rock and the house, thus minimizing the foundations of the building. via archdaily
