On the day of the date, we will analyze a very peculiar design both in Façade and in plans, in the case of a remodeled house which changed drastically when the old design of the front part was perpetuated and added a completely new twist with the culmination and creation of a second floor, thus drastically renewing the style but preserving the harmony of this hybrid housing.

In case you do not have knowledge, we tell you that the hybrid constructions convert the sun into alternating current to run all the utilities of the house. When we encounter cloudy or snowy days, a generator that runs on bio-fuel ensures continuous power supply.

This class of housing is intended to be completely independent of the local electrical network. By manipulating its surface for maximum solar exposure and the use of a group of ultra-fine batteries implemented at the base of the slabs.

In the front part of the plot we see how the original facade, which is one level. However, if we go a little deeper into the terrain, we can see how the construction rises in the middle of the house, giving shape to the second level, located as we already mentioned, in the interior part of the land.

The gift of San Juan Cosalá

Counting on a North-South orientation its main facade is oriented towards the water. In this entrance, both pedestrian and vehicular access were placed, thus generating a parking lot.

Sensational, square and Minimalist

El minimalist design comes to life in this home, mainly characterized by simplicity. This is how the straight lines and good finishes are the privileged ones, as well as the spacious and well-lit spaces. As we can see in the photograph, the ceiling and walls mostly have a perfect polished concrete. its minimalist facade highlights with nature and has two floors, garage for two cars, living room, kitchen, pool and bedrooms. The rectangular volume is present and helps to define the lighting from the windows.

A prominent feature of minimalist style is the flat roof, in this case the white must be present and as for the walls, the shape can vary but always respecting rectangular lines. Another aspect to consider is the rectangular windows on the second floor. The location of the pool is appropriate to take advantage of all the space.

The rooms are illuminated thanks to the windows that are located both on the first and second floors, which allow daylight to enter without any problem. When placing the small vertical windows on the second floor, it was thought that the spaces are not so visible on the outside, but that they maintain the adequate lighting required by this coquette minimalist housing.

Referring to the constructive details, the defined and openwork designs correspond to generate dimension in the house. As we said at the beginning, they combine polished concrete with full white paint, while we also find a wall design with vertical cavity, giving a totally modern and updated to the construction.

Respecting the line of the minimalist style, the living room and the kitchen have the walls painted in the aforementioned color, the white, as well as the ceiling, thus generating a perfect contrast with the black frames.

Although at first glance we can think that it is a high cost house, the truth is that by taking advantage of each of the spaces and using the white to enlarge the rooms, you can create a house that is quite accessible, both in price and comfort for the family.
