Optimum Views and Benificial Solar Orientation

Optimum Views and Benificial Solar Orientation
House In Costa Brava, Spain
by Garcés - De Seta - Bonet Arquitects


Barcelona-based architect Jordi Garces of Garces-de Seta-Bonet Arquitects has completed the ‘casa costa brava’ on a steep inclining site parallel to the coastline with optimum views of the ocean and a beneficial solar orientation.

The residence is organized in a linear fashion to take advantage of natural light in all rooms due to huge windows and doors. The subterranean level containing the gym and other recreational functions spills out to a rectangular infinity pool extending into the landscape and covered by a wooden pergola.

The verticality of the property breaks the dwelling into four separate floors each with different programmatical elements, all of which look towards the sea.

Small gardens and mini-courtyards are created between and on top of the clustering of masses making a structure that can be lived in and lived on, plastered in white stucco to maintain a mediterranean aesthetic that acts as a sort of blank canvas allowing the resident to appreciate the contrasting beauty around them.
