House in Rural Spain Landscape
The architectural office Arnau Estudi d’Arquitectura presented a private house in the village of Santa Paü, Spain. It is built in a corner of happiness where beautiful nature and ancient landscapes have been preserved, and the familiar smoke from neighboring chimneys is part of everyday life in this rapidly changing world. In this house, a family enjoys nature and simple pleasures. It is like a time machine—aiming to keep the precious landscape forever unchanged.
This architectural object transforms its relationship with the surrounding environment with the changing seasons through the filter of vegetation along the riverbank. Afraid of the fleeting beauty of this scene, the house hesitantly rests on a hillside, like an owl ready to fly on.
