CONCEPTUAL APPROACH«The infrastructure is as important as the superstructure. The concept, at times, protects by covering, sometimes it embraces and brings air by opening.Residences integrate the background and become partof the landscape; as if they were in place for years andaccustomed to be there.

Here, the project aims at an architectural orientation thatis natural, cool and function, and with character at thesame time.»
