Text description provided by the architects. Ending all types of conflict - the architect draws a clear line – a link – between the sky and the rough stone of the land. Modern and traditional unite. The Ibiza finca displays different hues of white, all contrasting with each other. Its central patio, private garden, is a pivotal point connecting the different parts of the house. This is where you enter, as is the want of tradition.

The furniture designed by the architect and the stone features communicate the same savagery. This is their way of resisting the harsh, country environment encircling the house.
