The strategic emplacement of the buildings, leaves 80% of the site´s area for green areas and open spaces, this represents a privilege due its urban condition.

This strategy frees the space, creating areas that dialogue and integrate with the landscape, these way public spaces, gardens and the ravine; create daily encounters that allow collective coexistence.

The structural system is thought to deliver a greater privacy sensation from the interiors, and a result of the configuration of the units, crossed ventilation is achieved in all of them.

The concrete materiality on the buildings, along with the landscaping work, gives personality to the residential complex, keeping the site’s original atmosphere.

The disposition of the buildings inside the plot leaves a free space face to the street, which gives some respite to the neighborhood, which is of a lower height condition. Source by Luis Aldrete.
