The project of this single-family house of two floors is conceived integrating the steep topography of site, the excellent views and the preexisting swimming pool located in the highest zone of the plot, with a mixed program of residence and office with a compact design that hides a dense interior. In order to get the best conditions of internal confort and energy saving during the whole year, the following bioclimatic strategies are adopted: best orientation of the windows and solar protection with sliding panels, cross-ventilation improved by means of a passive cooling system and a ventilated roof construction.
