Description of project by WOHA Arquitectura
The project deals with the rehabilitation of a 150-year-old house located on a plot with strong linearity, where there is an alfalfa plantation. This is located in the garden of Alicante.
The project intends to close the house to the road and open it towards the planting of its plot, generating a permeability from the inside of the house to the outside. The house is divided into three longitudinal strips:
- The existing one, which will house the bedroom and kitchen uses.
- The central strip, in charge of connecting the house with the 160-meter-deep garden, for this, the existing load-bearing walls are broken, beams are placed, and the upper part is closed with glass.
- The most private part that is protected from outside views by a sidewall.
It is achieved that the living area with uses the dining room, barbecue, and porch, is visually connected with the backdrop that is the plantation of the plot itself.
