house of the week 95: House for a Photographer

A clean and minimalist weekend house for a photographer that was designed by his brother architect Carlos Ferrater. The house consists of 3 one-room units located on a long site among a palm grove facing the sea in Alcanar, Spain. The play on volumes recalls a cubist composition by Pablo Picasso that was painted in a nearby community and was further influenced by the conditions of the landscape, the construction and to the light that creates a series of small courts amongst the forms.
