Cabo House, Baja California Sur

Español + Ingles

English text (scroll down for Spanish):

Casa Cabo is a refuge that invites those who inhabit it to experience the particular conditions of its environment, characterized by an arid nature of high temperatures, peculiar endemic vegetation and dry winds.

The house is resting on platforms made with the same earth of the surroundings that decline gently with the slope of the land. The compacted earth walls that seem to emerge from the sand between rocks and vegetation, support the structure of the roofs, giving privacy to the interior of the space and framing the view towards the sea.

Four monumental roofs define the ceiling that seems to levitate, generating separations and hierarchies in each part of the resulting spaces. Between the volumes, the different gardens and corridors are interwoven; leading to an inner central patio that converts the public area into the heart of the house, ending with a pool that intertwines with the horizon of the sea.

Spanish text:

Casa Cabo es un refugio que invita a quienes la habitan a convivir con las condiciones particulares de un entorno árido, de temperaturas elevadas, vientos secos y una vegetación endémica peculiar.

La casa nace sobre unas plataformas construidas con la misma tierra del lugar que van bajando suavemente junto a la pendiente del terreno. Los muros de tierra compactada parecen emerger de la arena entre rocas y vegetación, soportando las armaduras de las techumbres, brindando privacidad al interior del espacio y enmarcando la vista hacia el mar.

Cuatro techos monumentales a dos aguas definen a la cubierta que parece levitar, siendo una pieza clave en la configuración de los cuatro programas de la casa y generando separaciones y jerarquías en cada uno de los espacios resultantes gracias a las differentes alturas. Entre los volúmenes se entretejen los differentes jardines y pasillos hasta desembocar a un patio central interior que convierte el área publica en el corazón de la casa, rematada con la alberca que se entrelaza con el horizonte del mar.
