The first ideas to this housing project appear naturally, as the way we become to discover, the real character of the site, the program, and some of the clients wishes.

Since the beginning there was one conceptual presupposition that was essential to pursuit. That was to work with all the different limits, and make them participate in the process of conceptual composition, from the limitation of the area of implantation, or the limitation of the maximum height allowed in the street facade (12m), or the limitation of the program (four independent houses), or even the different urban regulation`s. So all these limitations should stimulate the compositional freedom. And so have grown up many intentions that have materialized in the project.

The front for the street must be something contained in terms of design and composition, but the back facade could have a freer composition, as if the facade of the street to take a more public sense and the facade of the garden to take a more private way, another important aim is to take some outside reflection of inner systematization.
