    Palabritas Beach House

    WTF

    Palabritas Beach House, recently completed by Peruvian firm Architect Jose Orrego, is a contemporary and stylish house designed to capture the view situated on the coast of Lima, Peru.

    The house is located on the first row of lots and was designed so that the architecture acted like a frame to the view of the beach and the islands that are found in front of the house.
    The esthetic of the house celebrates the summer with modern curves that remind us of the Brazilian architecture of the sixties.

    The whole house has a white finish with color accents in red, in both main elements such as the swimming pool as well as furnishings. The house reminds us of competitive elements used in Stanley Kubrick films, with the white curved elements contrasted with details in red.
    The exterior was designed as a white elevated box, exposed from its front side. One of the sides has a concrete lattice based on a contemporary composition with perforations that allow the interior to have a transparency without losing its intimacy.

    The dining and living room are placed so that they can be integrate with the terrace by sliding the glass doors.
    An interior patio was developed on a lower level where the bedrooms and family room conjoin so that an intimate zone for these rooms are created.
    The main bedroom is located on the first level and was designed so that it had a view towards the ocean.

    As a whole the house created a contrast of red color over white surfaces, in a way that the spaces give an appearance of amplitude.
    From the inside of the living room, the architecture offers a frame that shows the landscape of the beach, the island and the sunset.

    I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

        To me it looks like an expensive cross between a caravan and a modern take on a barbie doll house !

          Looks like a lot of plastic, but still stunning. I would prefer to live in a lovely old craftsman [arts and crafts in England] house. Oh, just realised this the beach house. In that case i will have it !!

            Does look barbie dollish...

            I'd be much happier with The Sherman Estate located in Encino, Ca...the movie "Fracture" with Anthony Hopkins was filmed there.

            It was fun while it lasted...

                      the one in the pics

                      the view of the sunset over the beach is good - but i think i'd be tempted to just walk 100yds and experience the same view from.. er .. the beach.

                      Without the concrete barriers/road in the way and without feeling wrapped in white plastic - how much did it cost?

                        I still think it is actually quite stunning, but only as a beach house. But that is what it is, so that's fine !! I like the using of alternative materials , just prefer to live full time in traditional wood!!

                              The color scheme is just f*cked up I think.

                              It was fun while it lasted...
