Piedras Negras house is located in Rupanco Lake, North Patagonia of Chile, in the Lakes Region. The house is placed on the border of a native forest, facing the shore of the lake which still is rural and low-developed, giving a special atmosphere to the site. We were asked to design a simple house for holidays, where most of the uses are related to the lake, and wintertime when it´s very rainy and most of the activities are in the house. When we first visit the place, one of the main ideas was not to lose the feeling of living in nature, and for that reason are layout had to be surrounded by nature, breaking the distinction between in and out. The house is designed in a perfect rectangle where all the program is organized linearly and open to the lake. Two patios cut the volume into three parts where nature brokes the spatial continuity of the structure and invades the interior.
