The house is built around a big central courtyard, the main spaces are opened to a larger garden. The public area are oriented to the north, the private spaces are oriented to the east and service areas – to the west. Everything in the house is made from the point of view of natural ventilation and moving of the air masses due to the hot climate in Argentina.
