Summary:

In this unique family house, there appears to be no staircase and that none of the service facilities of the house are visible, all hidden away on a lower floor, which leads us to believe this is not a house but many houses at the same time. It is more a pavilion than a house, given that the only thing to emerge is a large open level of rectangular panels in a bright white as if it were a temporary Japanese pavilion or a marquee. The book includes an interview of the two architects: Ferrater and Martí by Emilio Tuñón as well as an extensive photo coverage and a selection of plans.
