The land has an unevenness of 5m. The house fits this unevenness and seeks alignment with the neighboring buildings. Principles of lightness and essentiality had the opportunity to take shape and, in a single opportunity, pursue how to relate very different materials such as concrete, steel, and wood. The construction execution time was an essential requirement for the development of work. An apparent structure of concrete sheets connects the space of the first floor of the house to the ground and allows the anchorage of a steel structure, made in an industrial environment, which forms the second floor.
