Estudio Larrea
Oettel House
Authors: Daniel Larrea and Leticia Balacek, architects
Location: A Country Club, Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina
Date: 2013
Area: 230 m2
The clients, a couple with two children, wanted the main room and their children's room to be on the same floor, but separate, for their new home. In response to this requirement, the proposal was to generate a central space of double height that would divide the floor into three parts.
The combination of volumes, displacements and changes in height made it possible to achieve a floor plan without doors or walls, although with well-defined spaces. The selected
materials give the work warmth, movement and, above all, the sensation of a friendly scale for the inhabitant.
