The time, which incorporates the movement and permanence. The materiality, which incorporates the antithesis weight/lightness.

Concrete volume; from which is subtracted, the space to enter, and the south patios. Patios that enable continuity, between different spaces of the house, and interior/exterior. Which behave like a sun clock, alternating solid and diffuse light. The space articulates, compression and horizontality, with decompression and verticality. In a precise exercise, of measure and proportion.
