"The steep hillside facing Lake Puyehue is not seen as a difficulty to overcome, but rather as a condition that structures the project, influencing its design and organization."
"The slope of the site defines the volumetric strategy and support system, allowing for a unique architectural response that integrates seamlessly with the surrounding temperate rainforest."
Casa Ladera is situated on a steep hillside overlooking Lake Puyehue in southern Chile, surrounded by a temperate rainforest of native hualle trees. The architects view the site's slope not as a challenge but as a fundamental aspect that shapes the project's design. This topography influences the volumetric strategy, support system, and programmatic organization of the house, creating a harmonious relationship between the architecture and its natural environment.
