The site, completely isolated in the middle of nowhere and surrounded by nature, was discovered by two brothers during a climbing excursion. They fell in love with it, and they decided to buy it and take care of it for several years, reforesting it.
A rectangular volume with an inclined profile makes up the house. Inside, the space has minimal divisions and large parallel windows that allow cross ventilation; there is also a terrace that almost doubles the area of the house. The local quarry was used to obtain the blocks that make up the walls; the floor is made of clay and the doors are made of wood and glass. All the materials were preserved in their natural state without any type of coating.
