Tucked away in the verdant landscape of Santa Lucía de Heredia, the Music House is a harmonious blend of traditional and modern aesthetics. Crafted with a delicate interplay of brick and timber, this residence unveils itself to the tranquil mountain views, embodying the symbiosis of architecture and nature. The heart of the house, the living room, rises to a double-height space, housing a cozy, loft-style studio. An artistic concrete roof gutter captures the rain, allowing it to fall gracefully through a circular aperture into a serene inner garden. The shared warmth of a dual-sided fireplace bridges the living and dining rooms, fostering a sense of unity and intimacy. A dramatic cantilevered timber staircase, acting as the home’s architectural centerpiece, anchors the main lobby. The Music House echoes the rhythm and cadence of its environment, embodying a symphony of design and natural beauty.
