The project designed by RR & PZ, develops the program linearly on two floors, which in turn, are defined with different structures in concrete and wood. The linear design of the house makes it dialogue with the strong lines of the horizon of the Chilean coast, using surrounding vegetation and a small hill as back-stage frames.
Description of project by Fabiola Pineda y Luciano Riquelme, RR&PZ
“La Negra” (The Black House) is perched as an object that comes to state an approximation between an unexplored hill and a desolated beach. Its impartial nature is set right in the middle of the beginning and the end of both scenes.
Its functions are elevated to a second floor, establishing a lengthwise volume regarding the skyline. The natural environment underlies the care of the occupant.
The inhabitant captures the different moments of the sea through routes that induce the negation and the emergence of the landscape. In this way, living is persuaded by the light that frames the times of each space.
