Pedregal House

Project Description

The house sits atop a hill that overlooks the city. This was the main reason why we positioned the two bedrooms facing forward. The bedrooms are two separatevolumes that intersect the main concrete „shell“ of the house. The front and back are kept open with huge glass walls, both to let sunlight in to the rear and to benefit from the view to the front.

Upon entering through the main door, the staircase welcomes you as the first thing you see. It divides the ground level into public spaces to the left, which include a guest bedroom and the living room, and service spaces to the right, which include the kitchen, dining and laundry rooms. The upper level is the private space with the two main bedrooms, as well as an office/studio and a TV lounge.
