Incorporating exisiting trees into a house design needs some skills and techniques. Duo architects Martín Fernández de Lema and Nicolás F. Moreno Deutsch have recently completed a contemporary house project in Mar Azul, Buenos Aires. The site s full of thick forest of different kinds of pine trees, acacias and black poplars.

The architects should follow the local construction code that demands free space at both sides and limits the extraction of trees. The client which is a couple also requested that the house should preserve the natural conditions of the land, to profit as much as possible from the natural qualities.

The house design emerges from the ground to see the landscape surrounding, employing a two storey structure which hosts each of its rooms. The lower level defined for private use, while the upper level supported the social program with the living, dining room, grill and terrace, organized in a central area of use, with sides of circulation and services.
