The site is located on a plot which the surrounding levels are intensive. The pavement on the front of the site is four meters higher from the site level and the back is eight meters higher.
The building has a great circulation flood as it guides you in the internal space. The two main semicircular axes create two different zones, one private and one semiprivate where the living room, the kitchen and the dining room is.
The building volume is put on the east side of the plot in such way which leaves a large space for the garden. Due to the circular connection of the internal with the external there is beautiful interconnection giving the sense that the building hugs the external. The ground floor is consisted by two living rooms, the dining room, the kitchen and a fire place.
The top floor is consisted by two bedrooms, a master bedroom and a dynamic terrace. Here we use the term ”Dynamic” not only to highlight the shape, but also to emphasize that space can be convert to a room. The central fairface volume, rotates in a way that it tones the external center space.
