This inside and outside relation is favored using Flexbrick as a continuous envelope for the façade and the pergola.  The construction is structured around a courtyard, located in the central part, which is the one that articulates all the rooms of the house through a perimeter corridor that surrounds it. All the rooms of the house are illuminated and connected, generating crossed visuals through the central space enabled by the Flexbrick latticework, achieving the privacy of users with respect to the street and neighbors, while the glazed green tiles in different tonalities allow this visual relationship with the surrounding vegetation on the other axis of the house that seeks its integration into the vegetal environment.
