Son Llodrà House: Merge into the Landscape / Bastidas Architecture
At the top of a Mediterranean hill, where low vegetation and the horizon define the landscape, this house seeks to disappear. Its main strategy is to merge with the terrain: semi-buried and covered by a layer of native vegetation that renders it invisible, it turns architecture into topographical continuity. The earth and native plants not only conceal it, but also cool and insulate it, offering a way of inhabiting rooted in discretion and respect.
