In a slope site of about 10,000 m2 is located this house as second residence for vacational periods and week ends. The plot has a high vegetation density, mainly oaks, and the clients are tree-growing experts. In this context, four types of forest with their transitions, will find their own place in the different conditions of humidity, topography and sunlight of the plot. Each forest will have its apogee in a season of the year, and the house will be related from the middle of the site to all of them, looking for the optimal way in each case.
