Text description provided by the architects. Castro House appears as the conception of a project that join brutalism with modern New York architecture.
The project consists of two distinct levels that separate the social area open to an internal garden with a swimming pool, and the private area where the bedrooms and the main entrance are located, which hides the client's personal universe with a monolithic façade in exposed concrete.
The choice of bricks, concrete and a metallic structure reinforces the client's desire for their residence to be a large “man cave” together with the brutalist ideal that maintains Castro House with an austere aspect, which receives a counterpoint of color from the vegetation and the copper panel.
