The simple, horizontal design hides a great deal of structural complexity. Due to the large spans, the slabs are prestressed and there are many tie rods around the house. Structural elements are visible both externally and internally, becoming part of the architectural design. The main staircase, for example, is a concrete staircase, clad in wood and beautifully braced on the upper slab.

Wood, concrete, art, and nature form a light but imposing composition. The glass facade reflects the sunset turning the concrete in golden color. In every room of the house, architecture frames nature.
