The project was developed taking in consideration the natural events of the region. The main subject is the water. First filling up the bath tup, and then living with it.
It´s means that the house has the ability to adapt depending of the weather.
The topography was changed. The center sink, to put cushion of neoprene, where the house will be sitting.
That way when the hurricane comes the house will be able to float, by a center column, that will do the job of a tow truck and tension cables, so it won´t move from its place. Also the project has a empty space in the basement to make the house float like a boat.
The deck are wood curtain that slide, to covert the windows and avoid the dominant winds.
The interior design turns in a perimeter ramp, that goes proportioning the common spaces to private, derivates of the draw of the hurricane.
The sustainability of the house, lies in the use of the natural materials of the region. The cross ventilation and the solar advantage helps to reduce the energy because the orientation and selection of the place where the windows were put was thinking about this.
