Text description provided by the architects. The house emerges with two overlapping structures topped by a triangular element (the stairs leading to the terrace).  The lower structure, more transparent and more "fragile", supports the higher structure, dimmer and containing more rhythmic openings, where small volumes - the balconies – punctuate to the South.
