The climatic conditions and situation of the land, which had views of 360 degrees, resulting in the idea of ​​giving a plant cross at the four cardinal points long views.

We decided to use a construction in cedar wood walls, floors and ceilings in the private area of the house as in the playground and dining as well as achieving a cozy cottage feeling, attending the climatic situation of the place. In the central area of the cross is the entrance hall; in this area we made a change using limestone pavement in order to emphasize the idea of the plant cross distinguishing between the different areas of the house.
