Located within a condominium in the capital of Guatemala, the house seeks to generate its own identity and a direct relationship with the natural environment. The structural conception of the house was modified, converting the masonry structure into a concrete frame and beam structure.
With the intention of emphasizing the structural elements, as well as seeking to highlight local construction methods and materials, a formwork design was worked out using fine woods to leave a permanent mark on the exposed concrete.
The design of the windows was carried out seeking the possibility of opening the spaces as much as possible, and by using floor-to-ceiling windows, the openings of the rooms can be completely opened so that the room itself becomes a balcony. The existing vegetation was preserved so that when opening the windows one could have a visual and in-person relationship with the existing trees.
The color white was used for the horizontal and vertical planes (slabs and walls) with the purpose of causing the spread of natural light. Materials such as tempered glass, wood and exposed concrete were used in their dimensions and natural tones, generating a sober and frank architecture.
