The GM House was conceived for a young family on a remarkably distinctive plot of land with an intriguing topography. Taking advantage of a slope that offers stunning views, the house harmoniously blends with the surroundings by resting horizontally on the contours of the terrain.
Located slightly below street level, the house has a single access point on a continuous plateau, where a void between the social and intimate blocks delineates the main entrance. A spacious central void, covered by a floating metal structure, connects and unifies the residence.
The composition of both social and intimate volumes under the expansive metal roof emphasizes the horizontality of the project. Natural materials such as bricks, stone, and warm-toned wood complement aluminium panels, balancing aesthetics and cosiness.
The hollow elements and cutouts in the roofs allow for the creation of gardens and terraces, strengthening the integration between the house and the landscaping. Thus, the residence is configured as a harmonious fusion of architecture and landscape.
