Location

Year

Type
New Construction
Technique
Rammed earth
Built area
125 m²
The brief was a small footprint that still felt spacious, a weekend house, not a full-time home. We stacked instead of spreading out: rammed earth carries the ground floor, a steel spiral stair leads up to a mezzanine bedroom, and guadua screens do the work walls would otherwise have to do, filtering light and view without closing the space in. At 125 square meters, every material had to earn its place.
