This new property built in Playa de Palma aimed to combine the Majorcan building style with contemporary clean volumes. The concept of the project was born around the idea of building the house on a very irregular plot, making the most of the views but trying to preserve the privacy on the street side at the same time.
The starting point of the distribution was a very strong down stroke. The staircase became the main axis of internal circulation, making it the centre of the indoor space. The volumes were concatenated, so the building itself hided the private garden. This fact caused a surprise effect when you got into the house, showing views that you couldn’t see from the street and turning the action of going downstairs a ritual or ceremony that guides you gradually through the property.
