INFINITE PLANE FACING THE INFINITE SEA
We have built the most radical house we have ever made, an infinite plane facing the infinite sea. A house facing the Atlantic Ocean, at the water’s edge on a beach of Cádiz, like a piece of earthly paradise, where the Romans once lived in nearby Bolonia.
We built a powerful podium in Roman travertine whose upper horizontal plane becomes the protagonist of the space. Inside the podium, underneath this platform like a temenos, is the house.
Above and behind the stony platform, we have erected stone walls to protect us from the strong prevailing winds.
As if it were an acropolis. A temenos where the gods descend to converse with humans and toast with Sherry on this plane on high looking out onto the infinite sea.
