This modern concreate single family residence designed by Iñaqui Carnicero Arquitectura is situated in a small neighbourhood of Los Peñascales, in Madrid, Spain.

In 2010, the plan started out as a house renovation.  However, when it was discovered that the state of the existing dwelling rendered this impossible, demolition and reconstruction became the point of departure for a new project.  The building plot is situated in a conservation area made up of medieval townhouses and various other period buildings overlooking the historic port of Saint Goustan where a famous historical figure, Benjamin Franklin, landed in 1776.

This house built of wood was dreamt up in 2007 and finished in the spring of 2010.  The owners wanted to build an ecological dwelling with an arched roof at SAINT NOLF in the Morbihan.  They bought a plot of land on a relatively steep slope in a verdant valley on the outskirts of the village.

In 2002, the first owner wanted to build a house according to the French RT 2005 energy regulations by combining metal and wood, spacious rooms and geothermal heating.  The house needed to be integrated into an ancient orchard situated in the village of Pluvigner in South Brittany.
