This volume raised above the two porticoes generates spaces that are used to create double heights on the ground floor where the living room and dining room are located. Access is via a portico made of a white slab.
The architectural studio has implemented the "Passivhaus" philosophy and uses a SATE insulation system to create the highest energy efficiency. The ventilation system is double flow, which together with an air conditioning system with aerothermal and solar hot water collectors guarantees maximum energy certification.

Description of project by 969 Arquitectos
House and pool are combined in an exclusive design with a zero energy concept. This project materializes a lifestyle linked to sports and health in a house adapted as a suit tailored to its inhabitants. From the simple design of a clear volume over a swimming pool to the natural materials, the house breathes the natural environment of this Costa del Sol area with maximum energy efficiency.
The house is composed with a volume supported by two box pieces. This main volume houses supports the night uses, which is why wood is used as the skin, to give it´s interior warmth and intimacy, highlighting it over the white set, which seeks Mediterranean reminiscences.
The house plays with the spaces that releases this high volume, generating double heights in the lower ground floor space occupied by the living and dining rooms. The access is produced through a portico that is built with a fine white slab that includes the entrance area and a parking space.
The interior design plays with natural materials such as lime mortar, natural wood, stones and fabrics, always seeking to convey a conjunction with Mediterranean nature. Never lacking in a certain level of sophistication.
The house is built with Passivhaus philosophy using an envelope with an ETICS insulation system and therefore guaranteeing the absence of thermal bridges, the high performance windows guarantees the sealing of the façade. The double-flow ventilation system with recovery energy its efficiency, which, together with high-efficiency air conditioning, with aerothermal energy and hot water solar pannels, guarantee the maximum energy classification.
