The materials used in the construction of single-family residences are increasingly important and on many occasions become the focal point of the construction. Advances in the composition, fabrication and application of materials allows for the creation of structures and forms that were unthinkable just a few decades ago.

The singularity of these homes is marked by the predominant use of one material, which in turn is linked with the original concept of the house.
