Text description provided by the architects. Like a silent object settled in the tropics, Flamboyanes 41 reveals itself through pure lines and long shadows. This 450-square-meter residence, located in La Romana, was born from the intention to sculpt a refuge that subtly dialogues with its natural surroundings without imposing itself upon them.

The architecture unfolds as a contained gesture: solid walls define its geometry, openings frame fragments of the landscape, and horizontal planes invite stillness and contemplation. The play between mass and void, light and shadow, allows each space to feel serene, intimate, and deeply connected to the exterior.

The project proposes a fluid fusion between the built and the natural. The pool becomes a mirror of the Caribbean sky; the palm trees, integrated into the pathways, penetrate the pavement like living columns; the breeze, guided by the spatial arrangement, refreshes the interior without the need for artifices. Here, the tropics are not just a backdrop but matter, atmosphere, and structure.

Flamboyanes 41 does not seek to dominate, but to endure. It is a work designed not only to be contemplated, but to be inhabited slowly: a home that offers its occupants the rare luxury of sometimes fading into the landscape.
