This project has a privileged location next to the Miradoiro da Granxa, with sea views and a rugged topography. The goal was to build homes in respectful dialogue with the landscape taking the terraced vineyards of the Rías Baixas as inspiration; platforms accommodate the volumes, provide protection from the wind and enhance the views. The communal areas are integrated into the intermediate spaces, with priority given to orientation, sunlight and screening from road traffic. The architecture seeks to blend in with the surroundings, by softening its scale through vegetation and materials that respect the local identity and offering a sensitive and consistent intervention in keeping with the Galician topography.
