Argentinian architects Nicolás Barrionuevo and Juan Villanueva have accomplished an remoted residence in Luyaba that’s wrapped by a terrace with operable wood screens.
The Obra Luyaba mission is positioned in Traslasierra Valley in Córdoba and occupies a steep and remoted lot. “Getting there requires taking some precautions, and the notion of neighbour is just not current,” stated the architects.
Sweeping views of the mountainous environment are the best asset of the mission, and enhancing this expertise was the main focus for Barrionuevo Villanueva Arquitectos, which relies in Córdoba.
“The worth of the positioning is nature, which has the main position as quickly because the paved highway is deserted,” stated the architects.
“The work turns into current between the winding highway, the mountain topography and the vegetation. As soon as there, the mission takes centre stage for a second, solely to instantly return it.”
“You may’t compete with that setting,” they defined.
Elevating the principle dwelling areas gave the house higher views of the panorama whereas making a lined terrace at floor stage with an outside kitchen.
The 270-square-metre house is entered through a concrete staircase that extends from the driveway.
This results in the principle stage, which is an L-shaped quantity that comprises the bedrooms in a single leg, and the general public areas within the different.
The communal areas lengthen out in direction of the mountainous surroundings and are wrapped with full-height wood shutters. These could be opened or closed to supply shade and stop overheating by means of the glass facade.
An open kitchen and a eating room behind the home are visually separated from the principle dwelling house by a fire. The structural concrete used for the roof is seen all through the interiors.
“The construction helps the masses, defines the house, the makes use of and the fabric expression,” stated the architects. “In collaboration with the wood sieves, [the concrete structure] circumstances and influences the daylight and the views.”
Perpendicular to the communal areas are the house’s three bedrooms, that are laid out alongside a hall.
The intersection of each volumes comprises a terrace, with an extra staircase that results in a pool uphill from the principle residence.
Along with the uncovered concrete, light-coloured tiles function an inside and exterior ground end, lending some continuity between each areas.
These creamy tones are offset by heat wood accents used for furnishings, shelving, and the battens that shroud the dwelling areas.
Different tasks lately accomplished in Argentina’s Córdoba province embrace a house designed to resemble an historical medieval village by Nanzer + Vitas and a stone-and-concrete residence that lets north gentle into all dwelling areas.
