AA House in Almeria by MVN arquitectos

Aug 29 2012 ·  Comments · Architecture

Description from the architects:

The AA Home project arose from the need to build a site able to create a meaningful place. “So the house does not destroy this sense of peace that I had the first time I looked at the horizon from this hill, and to protect it” they asked us.
All the work was focused on developing project strategies that would enable to open the heart towards the horizon. Rest in light, pick up the nuances of the sunrise and sunset. Be part of a privileged viewpoint, where the inhabitants were permanently welcome.
And so was sought to ensure that the limit of the house was the horizon, a boundary that does not want to confine, but permanent opening. A house seeking shelter and protection, quiet at last. And so it calls at all times to the heart without forcing any door, without opening them, without crossing thresholds, to experience the peace of the horizon made of sea, of wind, of rock, the horizon made architecture for many years.
