Raúl Sánchez Architects designed Casa Magarola in Sant Cugat del Vallès, Spain, as a light-filled residence anchored to a steep slope. The house appears compact from above, but descending reveals a lightweight structure sustained by slender concrete legs, minimizing environmental impact. With extensive glass panels linking the kitchen to the balcony, the design encourages fluidity between indoor and outdoor spaces. A central core organizes circulation, while a double-height void adds an element of drama, showcasing the project's core aim to coexist harmoniously with its natural surroundings.
Casa Magarola's design emphasizes a harmonious relationship between structure and terrain, creating a lightweight home that minimally impacts the hillside environment.
The integration of sliding glass panels facilitates an open flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, enhancing the connection with the surrounding landscape.
