Text description provided by architect.
SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE FOR A COUPLE AND 3 CHILDREN
The project is located in a semi-rural development atop one of the hills that surround Medellin, Colombia.
At the time of excavation, some big stones were found. These were kept in the original site and became the landscape’s dominant issue. Hence, the project’s name meaning among the rocks.
The main axis of the project coincides with a lap pool that clearly separates the volumes, of 1 and 2 levels that forms the house.
