From the architect. The plotLocated in l?Escala (Girona) near Montgó Cove with no special urban characteristics. A rectangular?shaped plot of 600 square meters surface with all urban services; soft topography, faces north-south oriented along the plot. There was no pre-existing condition at the site, neither vegetation nor built element.
