Located in the western side of Mexico, in Bosques de las Lomas, House de la Punta is a two storey cantilevered residence of 875 m2. Central de Arquitectura have chosen to base the design on a hard core modernist approach and play a game of transparency versus solidity, this way enhancing the diversity that characterizes the project.

Composed by two rectangular prisms arranged on top of each other, so as to create an ‘L’ shape, the building serves as a symbol of minimal, clean cut and geometric architecture. The rectangle resting on the glass part of the ground floor appears as if it is hovering above the exotic garden. The parking area, the games room and the cellar are situated on the basement, whereas the ground floor has been designed for semipublic activities and occupies the kitchen and living room areas, as well as a small deck for bbq. The first floor, on the other hand, houses the more private areas; 3 bedrooms, a study and a TV room.

The color scheme of the interior scene consists of a neutral palette, which combined with the wide use of timber, highlights the sophisticated details and gives a contemporary and elegant look to the space.
