Text description provided by the architects. El Refugio, located in the Southern countryside of Cuenca, Ecuador, is a rest space in connection with nature. The project, located on a farm, generates a personal space for a reduced family group. The approach to the site starts from a second-order road, from which a first perspective is generated that highlights the topography and the impressive endemic forest. The project doesn’t look forward to challenging the landscape, but rather to be part of it through its materiality and volumetric proposal.
