ROCA BLANCA

A holiday house in Puerto Escondido

The site faces the mountains to the north and the ocean to the south. The house consists of a platform and a wall. The platform provides a clear ground among the tall grasses, and the wall divides it into a space for the day and a space for the night. The rooms are arranged according to the sun path.
