Juncal & Rodney House

Project Description

Some houses close in on themselves when connection with their surroundings is to be avoided. However, others open up to their setting when it is clear that it gives them qualities and a raison d’être and hence must become an intrinsic part of the project. This applies to this home, since it is built on a plot of land located on the Begur massif, in one of the most sublime settings of the Costa Brava. The longitudinal volume of the north-south-facing building of two storeys is therefore open to the Mediterranean and the series of mountains and coves that can be glimpsed on the horizon.
The form fans out, establishing relationships between the house and the sea, the plot of land and the craggy geography, the rocky ground and the spectacle of Mediterranean skies. This is a house built between rocks and the horizon.
