House Malperte Curacao
Location
The house is located in an area of low density with large green spaces and an breathtaking view of 180° on the caribbean sea and the city punda.
Concept
This house reflects the commitment to the creation of innovative space that asserts clarity, simplicity and elegance.
The house signature is marked by a poetic arrangement of clear geometric forms, the subtle use of natural light, the relation open-closed and outside-inside and the subtle fusion of western and eastern architectural traditions.
The minimalism volume of the housing is implanted in the slope reducing it to a white volume coming out of the the mountain landscape.
Two themes stand out in the work: the air-light and the relationship with nature. This is evident in the treatment of outdoor spaces. The presence of white to nature for color contrast.
The house is full of light and shadow well agreed and luminous.
In plan, due to the slope the house is divided in two levels with two functions.
An open floor-plan out and inside connected to let the wind play through the living area, necessary in the climate of the tropic.
