In an effort to make the most of the gorgeous views visible from the site, the 05 AM Arquitectura team chose to reorient this stunning white house. They didn’t line it up with the rest of the properties but actually rotated it so it sits perpendicular to the hillside. This gives it a better orientation and allows it to take advantage of the outdoors in a rather spectacular way. The house is minimalist and has a white exterior and a flat roof. Design features such as the doors, sliding panels or the wooden deck prevent the house from looking too simple and monotonous by contrasting with its facades.
On a sunny summer day the house blends into the clear sky and almost disappears into the landscapeThe orientation of the house in relation to the site is unusual but also perfectly plannedA series of sliding panels allow the interior spaces to open up towards the gardenThe house embraces the sloping terrain and takes advantage of its topographyThe sloping terrain allows the house to transition from a single floor structure to a two-storey home very seamlesslyThe wooden deck acts as an extension for the interior spaces, a connector between the house and the landscapeThe swimming pool is positioned a few meters away from the house, perpendicular to the buildingThe house was pushed to the South limit of the site which maximizes its viewsthe interior spaces are bright, open and airy and some also have tall ceilingsThe palette of colors and materials is kept simple and pure, with the focus being on the texturesThe staircase which connects these areas is embedded into the design is a very natural and pleasant manner
