House Ocoa - Od3 Architects
The principal challenge was to create a space where they could live the privileged environment of the area of 5000 m2 located in the reserve Oasis de la Campana near Ocoa V region.
The soil inhabiting a rural section of the city, free of contaminants of any kind should be understood by the architecture and design principal axes. The house offers a haven, an escape, a peaceful rooms, a flexible and a great sense of respect for nature. The forms, seeking simplicity and logic, a sense of humility before the landscape.
The internal regulations of the condominium, conditioned the design to be placed in a respectful manner, trying to keep the vegetation which is incorporated in the housing sector.
The site also offers a slope, which was adopted as a balconied axis where the main sights in the common areas. Continuing the logic, the ground is not involved.
Thus, the project consists of two wings program, logically dividing private uses of the public. It is the latter, where the show comes together in a unique space which turns abruptly to a panorama framed by the Bell Hill and the valley. To achieve this natural setting, the plant off the ground positioning over the treetops.
This is where you decide programmatically unify the space comprising the kitchen, living room, dining room and terrace to amplify the convivial use. Building and the natural and the same views as witness of family activity. The user then has a habit more loose, more comfortable, less formal and more integrated.
The project includes in its materiality, who combine elements to its context. The use of wood, concrete, glass was in search of unification proposal chromatic and logic in seeking to unify the landscape architecture. Thus is achieved that the building was "lost" in the foliage, appearing and disappearing at times.
The linings are materialized through the proposal and its product Bomanite Microtop. This allowed to generate spaces clean, modern, with a finish and colors related with marbled end. This coating allowed the architect to play with textures and move freely between floors, walls and furniture, which highlights the inn kitchen island and counter tops in the bathrooms, which are metal structure. Use on walls allowed the architect to cover even the dwellings of creating a uniform appearance shower, clean and modern.

He said the architect Guillermo Jimenez, one of the basic requirements of this project was to be in permanent contact with the different views of the valley, flanked by Mount La Campana.
With that goal in mind, the architect who always look bothered moving through the various precincts of the home find a different facet of the field where it is located the house.
The proposal also called for respect for the environment so that the construction materials and color adapted to the terrain and surrounding vegetation.

Access and terraces are proposed as an intermediate step between the inner and outer space. This will create permeable levels that allow a better connection to the ground. The entry of natural light is also a factor that was contemplated in the design, adapting well, areas less exposed to outer space.

Stresses outside, the meaning of the gesture volume, skin, inside and routes which mimic the move in the field with spaces of light and shade and visual discoveries especially in the connection in the exterior views.
Due to the large exposure of the house, you build a siding to cut the direct hit of sunlight against the wall. This "skin" of timber moves a few inches from the plane wall, creating an air chamber that ventilates and helps to avoid overheating the perimeter.
