In the case of lovers of a good windy climate for practicing water sports such as windsurfing and kitesurfing, there is no doubt that the destination is called “Matanzas”, a town located in the central area of ​​the country, three hours away from Santiago, the capital city. Here, the project “Refugio 45” is located in the middle of a mountainous sector with a view surrounded by forests and ravines, a figure that in the distance stands out for being both vertical and horizontal at the same time, making the most of the only flat space of the land where it is located, and thanks to its wood materiality it blends in as a cozy shelter inviting to protect yourself from the climatic conditions of the zone.

The construction is characterized by the repetition of a module that houses three stories high and extends nine times in width, forming 80 m2 between exterior and interior spaces. Furthermore, through a skeleton made up of wood and steel ties, the project recognizes the small available area where it should be located and uses it to its advantage to rise vertically, distributing the public program, such as the kitchen, living room and bathroom, in a first floor next to the terraces, while the private spaces are on the upper floors, such as the master bedroom and a tiny loft that is used to accommodate guests.

Finally, the facades of the house consider certain levels of transparency. The side faces remain open to get clean horizontal views, while the northern facade develops a combination of timber blinders over the terraces for sunlight and rain protection.
