First thing that comes to mind when looking at the images… skateboard ramps. If I was a avid skateboarder I would definitely want to live there. Luckily for Spanish architecture firm A-cero, I won’t be leaving skid marks all over their precious house. The sleeping and living zone are organizes into 2 blocks and connected by a covered veranda, while featuring curved volumes emerged from the ground.

Joaquin Torres and his team designed this house to meet the needs of the client. The whole house is dressed with indigenous Coralline stone, a visual aspect that prospers with the right amount of solar light and the marine reference.

From the principal access, the house seems to hide behind an attainment of curved walls that believe a sculptural set. In the middle, a big door of two sheets in wood leads to the housing. The whole housing has crossed ventilation, this way to be able to make use of all the advantages of the Caribbean climate especially the sea breeze.

The stone of exterior Coralline interferes inside to offer visual continuity, in addition to there is this a material much adapted for the warm present climate the whole year. The whole housing one can say that it is opened on the outside in practically all his fronts, with big practicable large windows. The exterior sensation – interior ends up by getting lost putting the gardens inside the house.

The couches design of A-cero, they are realized by the carpentry “Amboage“ and upholstered by “Manama“ in textile of neopreno model Scuba in white color of the firm “Kvadrat“. In the whole housing this composition follows, in addition to the couches also in chairs, exterior beach chairs or some small tables. The furniture of carpentry designed by A-cero carried out in wood DM lacquer in high white shine for “Cándido Hermida“.
