House Corona

About the project

Located in the heart of Playa Grande, this residence was conceived to embrace the natural surroundings through a series of patios that create a constant dialogue between indoors and outdoors. Its design invites living in harmony with nature, blurring the boundaries between inside and outside. The property consists of a main house and a guest house, which together offer six spacious bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and two half baths.

3D rendering of the exterior of the House CM, featuring a covered terrace and a pool that forms the heart of the outdoor social space. The landscape design and clean lines of the architecture allow for a harmonious coexistence between the interior and nature.

The project explores a composition of volumes, where variations in ceiling heights introduce a dynamic interplay among the different elements of the ensemble. A palette of neutral tones sets the foundation, while teak ceilings and wooden furnishings infuse the spaces with warmth and timeless character.
