The stone becomes this way both structure and finish, and its silky skin, full of
character, acts as a backdrop to the activities of its inhabitants. The stone´s
cutting makes also room for 1 cm, thick glass pieces inserted in-between the
stone, allowing for the light to come in and out of the core space.
The new core to the house is conformed of the main bathroom and a small
restroom, and its construction is approached through tailor made solutions
developed to meet the particular conditions of the workplace. Thus for example,
the core´s perimeter walls are built with 3 cm thick solid limestone pieces,
anchored to floor and ceiling -and among them- acting as partitions, and not as
mere decorative sheathing.
