Houses
Towards the roads and neighboring buildings: a concrete block with few openings.
Towards the distant landscape and the golf course: a series of volumes that frame the view towards infinity.
Rusty steel bodies, separated from each other to allow the "natural" to be introduced into the architecture, or to dissolve it between endogenous vegetation, proposing no precise boundary between "built" and the landscape, even if the latter is also man-made.
The same happens in section. The roof of the public spaces is manifested as a continuation of the surrounding vegetation, allowing users the sense of being in an open space beyond the limits of the property.
