Casa RIMA / Cristián Romero Valente

Andreas Luco — Tue, 19 Aug 2025 15:00:00 +0000

Located on the coast of Los Vilos, in northern Chile, this residence is conceived as a refuge in close dialogue with the landscape. The aim was to create architecture that frames the horizon and allows the sound of the sea to be heard, while providing shelter from the southern winds characteristic of the area. This intention defined both the site placement and the use of a continuous wall that protects the interior spaces without interrupting the full opening toward the ocean.

Casa WV / Cristián Romero Valente

Andreas Luco — Sun, 23 May 2021 08:00:00 +0000

The WV house is located on a gentle slope in the town of Los Molles, Chile. The volume of the house was worked horizontally and at the same time was rotated, in order to give all the spaces a leading view of the ocean and the Puquén biopark. The solid North East facade that faces the street was designed to provide privacy, while the other front allows to contemplate an open view, neat with large windows.

LC House / Cristián Romero Valente

Daniel Tapia — Mon, 05 Aug 2019 16:00:00 +0000

The LC house is located to the eastern side of Santiago, Chile. It is built on the upper part of a slope making it higher than street level. Maximizing the most of this condition, a street-level entrance to underground parking was built. The house entrance is accessible through a flight of stairs which start at the street and ascends until it reaches the main access.

BYL Houses / Cristián Romero Valente + Raimundo Gutierrez Frías

Daniel Tapia — Wed, 06 Feb 2019 09:00:00 +0000

The BYL Houses are located on the highest buildable area of the slopes on the south side of Cerro Manquehue. This hill is located on the east side of the city, 1,638 meters above sea level, rising as the highest peak in the Valley of Santiago. In its natural state, the 5,200 m2 plot is characterized by its steep slopes, of which were altered partially and leveled prior to the project to locate a house, an internal road, an area for a swimming pool and trails that connect these spaces.

AV HOUSE / Cristián Romero Valente

Rayen Sagredo — Tue, 12 Sep 2017 11:00:00 +0000

The AV house is located in a steep slope. It is an uneven terrain next to a gorge that looks to the south, and it does not face the sea at the east. In order to not miss this view and to protect it from the wind, the house was partially rotated facing east, offering direct visual access to the Pacific Ocean.
