DESCRIPTIVE MEMORY

The Martindale House stands on a green natural landscape as a rectangular volume parallel to the street. On one of its back sides, generating asymmetry, a separate barbecue area with a grill extends to divide different social activities, maintaining greater privacy inside the house. The house presents a dichotomy between its front and back façades, inverting the volumes of the ground floor and upper floor. On the front, the large semi-covered volume on the ground floor generates privacy for the main access and parking, while on the back, the cantilevered volume on the upper floor is the protagonist.

As for materials, concrete is integrated with wood and black rods, combining with the nature that grows in certain sectors through the black floor.
