Concept:
The land is situated in Cerdanya’s area, in an old settlement where rehabilitation began 15 years ago. Currently, it consists of 5 houses. The plot is surrounded by a privileged natural environment with astonishing views of the valley and the mountain range of the Cadí natural park. The project is constrained by strict construction regulations that govern the region and that gear the project towards the use of ‘traditional Cerdanya’ exterior materials. The ‘ceretan’ home seeks integration with its context and amongst the surrounding existing constructions by means of using materials and basic elements of the local construction. Therefore, any construction should use locally sourced stone for the walls and artisanal clay tiles for the sloping roofs. It should incorporate as well the ‘era’ or garden, the porches and the access through the ‘ceretan’ gate.
