Oyamel House by Rafael Pardo Arquitectos

At first sight, three solid introverted spaces jump out, jealous of the interior but open to the landscape to maintain euphony with the views. In the first are the social spaces that converse directly with the exterior through large openings covered with aluminum and crystal: the living – dining room and the game room are anchored in the same center for their synchrony of activities and the link with the pool and the terrace. 

In a nearby private wing, the kitchen debates with the service area, the social space and the breakfast nook which sustains an affinity with the social spaces outside.Right next to the kitchen is the covered garage for four cars, a level below the ground floor so as not to mar the façade. 

In the following space is the television room and two bedrooms for the children, with their own dressing room and bathroom. Under the shade of the third space is a contemplative terrace and a gymnasium.

A proud space parallel to the first rounds off the ridge. It hosts the master bedroom and bathroom and an ample dressing room, as well as a private television room and terrace which delights with the ethereal views of the landscape. The concrete structure and ribbed slabs allow flexibility in the space, aside from large clearings with svelte elements that maintain a visual lightness.Steel supports are housed in the blind walls, in order to hold up the overhangs.In this home, the concrete is the finish, covering 95%.
