The project is located along a lush cliff overlooking the sea from the north side of the island of Chiloé to the mainland by the Gulf of Ancud to dominate in the distance its relationship with various islands and volcanoes, Osorno, Calbuco and Pointed .
The land is covered by a thick forest of new native, Myrtle, Hazel, Ulmos, Cinnamon, had and Lumas. This condition of interiority that generates the thickness of the wood, contrasted strongly with the meeting of the open sea on its border, which fully dominates its surroundings and the southern channels of the archipelago of Chiloé. These elements are leading the architectural design of “AO”, a term that comes from the relationship of the native vernacular of the area, Los Chono, with the sea, its tour and which means “protected bay” in reference to be protected, but at the same time visually dominate what they called their “maritorio.”
Under this logic, the work stands below creating a mixed-use abroad, among piles that are articulated and relate visually to the forest, then enter a higher level, sheltered and stealth, to meet then from the inside with a breathtaking triple-height glazed overlooking the sea.
It is this space that the relationship, open sea and within the project area are reported through this gap, the amplitude of the sea is manifested in the work being this single space project. Large glazed openings eating light and lush landscaping to the interior.
The project is oriented north to spend most of the time with natural light, which in turn, heats the interior of the house. From the guidance given by their surroundings born two types of windows, three more related to natural light “East West” and four children to refer to the contact with his inner act landscape.
The work is made entirely of wood from the area, some of them, were obtained from the media space it now uses the house. The remaining wood is obtained from management plans.
The foundation pillars are Luma Colorada, the Master envigado Ulmo 3 x 8 and the remaining structural parts Canelo, tingle like the interior and exterior are Canelo ¾ x 8 “.
The exterior of the work is painted entirely with carbonileo Dynal, in order to create an image approved the project with its surroundings, creating a calorie absorption and protection of wood exposed to heavy rains in the area.
