The concept of the architectural morphology of the building is based on the play between continuous curves and double curved planes. The continuity of both elements, providing an optimal use of the sheer plot, emphasizes the experience of the distinct location and its views.
The spatial setup responds to the direct connection within the natural surroundings. Integration of the kitchen and service amenities in the core of the house creates a functional division in the spatial setup of the villa.

Continuous curves, following and interweaving with the vertical direction of the context, unite the horizontal architectural elements, levels and programmatic functions of the building.
Altogether, the architectural morphology generates a contemporary interpretation of the traditional villas that can be found in the region of Guerrero.
