For a Tranquil and Stylish Lifestyle in the Countryside | Boomerang House

The Boomerang House project was based on harmonizing with the natural environment surrounding it. Located on a carefully chosen steep terrain with a wide view of a golf course, this residence was designed to provide comfort, privacy, and sustainability for its residents.

The house features three suites, spanning 350m², and was positioned to minimize earth movement, respecting the terrain’s topography, and preserving the surrounding landscape. Its discreet and integrated facade, blending seamlessly with the slope of the plot, offers residents visual and acoustic privacy. It’s worth noting that the boomerang shape inspired the project’s name and facilitated dynamic integration with the terrain.

The main goal of the project was to create a home that fully integrates with nature, providing comfort and sustainability. Additionally, the residence was designed to reflect a peaceful countryside lifestyle, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. All areas of the house have visual contact with the external surroundings, promoting integration among spaces and facilitating gatherings among residents and/or visitors, both in the living, dining, kitchen, and deck with barbecue and pool areas.

Sustainable solutions, including photovoltaic panels, solar heating, use of reforested wood, rainwater harvesting, and septic treatment, ensure energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. Abundant natural light and cross ventilation eliminate the need for air conditioning in the living area, promoting a healthy and comfortable environment.

The facade, clad in brick, provides warmth, durability, and a timeless aesthetic that seamlessly integrates with the surrounding landscape. Wooden brises not only offer privacy but also add sophistication and dynamism to the interior spaces, creating a unique interaction with light and nature. Burnt cement floors with tiled patterns confer an artisanal and rustic finish, reinforcing the welcoming atmosphere of the countryside house.

  • Casa Altanera

    Casa Altanera is located in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, México. The lot has an area of ​​2,500m2, with minimum slope. It was established as a natural and essential order of the project to follow up on the reforestation process of the area, contributing to the regenerative process that we find in our context. A single-family housing scheme was developed, contained in three separate operating modules, distributed among social areas and two pieces that interact independently, solving a program of areas for a master bedroom for two people and four secondary rooms for eight people, including your individual and shared service areas. The interaction with the exterior was proposed through the areas that develop in the palapa. The dining room, the kitchen, the living room, the deck, and the pool, are linked together in a common space, while each unfolds from its movable facade of wooden doors, resolving climate relationships independently and sustainably. The most intimate and contemplative connection happens in the pieces of concrete and wood that contain the rooms, suggesting a protected, safe place, in which, each inhabitant would individually define the type of link with its immediate exterior, from its reading of the place.
