caceres + tous has made use of all available land by interlacing open with closed spaces, resulting in a dwelling that is deeply connected to its exterior surroundings. ‘house BK’ is split in three separate volumes, each of which housing functions that gradually progress from the more public to the more private ones. the first building encloses the most public areas, which include the entrance, parking, guest room and TV room.

a large garden with a pool extends between the first volume and the second one, providing more privacy to the semi-public second building. large sliding doors connect this volume to the exterior, while the living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry and maid room are located inside. a second garden past this building ensures total privacy for the third volume, where the three main bedrooms can be found.
