Architecture: Chilean Hillside Beauty

by Eric Franklin on August 27, 2008

I love this house on a Chilean hillside, particularly the way the house amplifies the view by opening its entire downhill facade onto the valley. The sloped deck leading into the lap pool may be a little bit of an accident waiting to happen. I can’t help but wonder if that would violate some crazy US building code.

The linear usage of wood which wraps the entire roof, back wall, and deck is also beautiful. Some great concepts focused on simplicity and taking advantage of the privacy and natural light.
