DESCRIPTION

Their size gives them a striking sculptural presence and unusual materials used in its exterior, cast concrete, unpainted rustic brick give a deliberately rough appearance. The industrial, exposed brick walls, which highlight the windows of different sizes are traversed horizontally by bands of concrete.

The houses "A" and "B" were designed to be built separately, sharing a lot of 1000 square meters and joining the basement, where parking spaces are located, also share a concrete terrace located in the garden and a system centralized heating. They are an expression of style "brutalist" and are based on the principle of Modulor, Le Corbusier theory on human scale.

The facades of the house "A" onto the street and hide the house "B", with its different orientation. Both houses of about 250 square meters each were designed so that the two families could live comfortably in the three plants each

The buildings are carefully placed on the ground, forming right angles to each other, with strategic setbacks from all property lines, except on the south side where one of the houses adjacent to the wall of an adjacent building. The result of this placement is a sequence of spaces increasingly private outdoor The timing of the trees as well as for the windows of the houses location provides privacy between the two houses and hidden from the adjacent buildings.
