Set on a 1,000 m² plot in Nordelta’s Yacht neighborhood, this 530 m² weekend house unfolds over two levels as a retreat open to the landscape. The architecture is organized into horizontal bands of exposed concrete which, projecting as deep overhangs and covered terraces, cast generous shadows and support a light envelope of large glazed surfaces. From every room, the eye meets greenery—the veranda, the pool, the garden and, beyond, the canal that anchors the scene.
The ground floor brings the social spaces together in a continuous layout, with expansive outdoor extensions designed for open-air living. The living room opens onto an infinity-edge pool conceived to blur the boundary between the water and the canal behind it, visually extending the horizon. Beyond the sun deck, the promenade culminates in a dock that extends the garden toward the river landscape.
Upstairs, the bedrooms open onto side terraces: one overlooking an inner courtyard, the other facing the pool and garden, while the primary suite enjoys an unobstructed view of the canal.
Materiality reinforces a contemporary yet warm character: exposed concrete, lapacho wood and black steel on the exterior—used for railings and the grill. Inside, grey Neolith flooring defines the ground level, paired with a mix of timber-clad and painted walls. Upstairs, both floors and walls are fully clad in wood, creating a serene, enveloping atmosphere.
