WATER AND VEGETATION: ARTICULATING AXIS FOR LANDSCAPE AND EMOTIONAL INTEGRATION
Leaning on one side of the pedestrian route, crossing below the higher white surfaces, an open linear passage materially defined by its two ends is structured: the swimming pool with views of the Sierra and the barbecue prayed on the rock. The projected articulating axis is also a continuation of the direction of the prevailing winds in the natural environment. Thus, an improvement in the natural cross ventilation of the interior building complex is obtained. For its improvement, humidity from the sheet of water and the aroma of aromatic plants (lavender, rosemary, sage, etc.) that have been selected for the adjacent garden are also provided.
