The lot, delimited by two streets, is characterized by its triangular shape, good orientation and a lot of slope. The clients asked us for a house in which to live in warm, intimate spaces, open to the garden and with low energy demand. In order to satisfy the demands of the clients, the project is based on two strategies. The first of them is to place the house on the high and flat part of the plot, locating the access to the north and eliminating unnecessary earthworks.

Francesc, one of the children of the house’s owners, contacted Sau Taller d’Arquitectura, a Catalan practice with a great deal of experience in this type of intervention, to turn the ground floor into a separate dwelling, independent of the rest of the building. Francesc’s objective was to live in “a house with large shared spaces, with lots of light and easy access”, and for his mother to continue living independently. This meant that the biggest challenge of the project was climate control, addressing both lighting and ventilation.
