Situated in a popular fishermens quarter of San Cristóbal, on the island of Gran Canaria, in a landscape dominated by self-builds and shanty towns, the house stands with its unfinished appearance, like another shacks, a few metres from the rocky shore and the sea.
They are three equivalent spaces, one in the basement, another one at beach level an-other on the top level: one for video projections another one for living and cooking and a third one for sleeping, as well as the landscaped roof with a swimming pool. The function of the three inhabitable spaces is determined by the situation of the few pieces of furniture that dot the house: a bed, a table and chairs, two armchairs, a television and a video projector.
