Casa Encinos by arxprnr

In a sociocultural context that, despite itself, clings to immutable traditions, Casa Encinos emerges as a beacon of innovation. Its design, composed of two superimposed volumes, breaks with the reigning homogeneity and establishes a harmonious dialogue with nature, challenging the limits of the conventional.

The base of the house, built with exposed board-marked concrete, occupies only 35% of the land. This structural sobriety gives prominence to the exterior space, inviting life to flow freely between interior and exterior. Maximum land absorption becomes a fundamental principle, integrating the house into its environment in an organic and respectful way.

On top of this solid base rises a suspended volume, a light structure of steel, aluminum profile and prefabricated panel that defies gravity by projecting itself in cantilever in two directions. This architectural gesture symbolizes the liberation from its earthly ties, an ascent towards a new housing paradigm where nature becomes an integral part of the home.

Two majestic encino (oak) trees infiltrate the structure of the house, inhabiting both the interior and exterior. Their serene presence brings life and warmth to the composition, reminding us of the deep connection that exists between the human being and the natural world.

Casa Encinos is not just a house; it is a statement of intent, an architectural manifesto that invites us to reflect on the way we inhabit the world. It is a space that transcends the barriers of the conventional and encourages us to question the future, where harmony with nature and individual expression are fundamental pillars towards a new architectural panorama.
