Designed twenty years ago, and like any successful piece of modernism, the Casa Azul house still finds itself at the forefront of design today. Designed by AABE architecture, this 250 square metre property in Spain is sculptural in form, and makes a solid mark on the landscape. AABE explain their design to us:

As a tense curtain on the landscape; a long and narrow hall surrounds the service’s rooms ends in a square plan accepting the living rooms. In its centre, a water plan and a roof light mark the junction of the two axes of compositions, they organize the different areas under a blue concrete slab. The dark grey concrete floor is installed in different levels in order to organize the functions and to form support of the furniture inserted in the architecture. A particular care was brought in the preservation of the duality of atmosphere: the shadow of the forest for the fire place, the sunny swimming pool looking to the sea view.
