With an upward slope from the street, they were challenged to design a project with the possibility of having easy access to the green spaces.

According to the regulations, the architects were allowed to build maximum 4 housing units. Fanesi & Navarro Arquitectas grouped them in 2, generating two separate blocks with a green space inbetween. To solve the difference in levels, they designed a triplex housing, or house in 3 levels.
The first storey, has access only from de façade, as the back is completely buried. This one is used as a garage and barbecue gallery, while the house is developed in the two upper floors.

The middle one, where the social activities of the house occur, has access to the backyard and a view to the front.
