Today we will show you a home in Costa Esmeralda, Buenos Aires, Argentina, a project by Luciano Kruk. This place is incredible! It looks like a perfect inspiration retreat spot. Not only the house is amazing but the surroundings too. Nestled among pines and steps away from the beach, this concrete structure will certainly win you over. Take a look!

Make sure to check out Luciano Kruk website for further information about this and other inspiring projects. See you next week. 🙂

Description from the architects: L4 House is located in the Costa Esmeralda gated community, thirteen kilometers north of the city of Pinamar and four hours from the city of Buenos Aires. The neighborhood where the house is located, Barrio Marítimo II, is linearly parallel to the sea. A pine forest divides the neighborhood from the coast, respecting the 200 meters setback established by provincial regulations. The house should serve for use during short stays. It should also be able to receive guests and eventually be rented.

The lot, a pristine sand dune, was covered by rows of maritime pines. As for its topography, its surface descends across approximately two meters from one end to the other, while longitudinally it descends gently toward the sea. The choice of materials was based on two reasons. On the one hand, after the previous experience of having built other homes in concrete, we knew that this material could be kept in good shape over time with virtually no maintenance. On the other hand, we considered its color and texture would establish a harmonious dialogue with the natural environment of the place.

We found this house at ArchDaily.
