Casa Moulat, located in the Amanali Golf Club development, is a representative building in terms of the use of exposed concrete. The project is based on integrating the construction into the natural landscape and its contrast with the artificial landscape created for the golf course; it explores the duality of open and closed spaces, inside and outside.


The single-story house sits on a stone plinth, over which a structural base of exposed concrete was built that rises up to the floor level of the house.


The house’s interior spaces adapt to the local topography, revealing the foundation through its changes in height in the manner of a skirting board.


On the foundation stand two volumes of exposed, earth-colored concrete, which contain the residence’s private spaces. The two volumes are connected by two gigantic concrete beams that support a large wooden roof with an elaborate openwork structure. The large windows in the house’s main space can be folded away, transforming the interior into a roofed terrace.

La Casa Moulat, ubicada en el fraccionamiento Club de Golf Amanali, es una obra representativa del uso del concreto aparente. El proyecto está basado en la integración de la construcción en el paisaje natural y su contraste con el paisaje artificial creado para el campo de golf. Es una construcción que explora la dualidad del espacio abierto y el espacio cerrado, el interior y el exterior.


La casa, de un solo nivel, se asienta sobre un basamento de piedra labrada, sobre el que se construyó un basamento estructural de concreto aparente que se levanta hasta el nivel principal. Los espacios interiores se van adaptando a la topografía del terreno revelando en sus cambios de altura dicha cimentación en forma de rodapié.


Sobre la cimentación se levantan dos cuerpos de concreto aparente color tierra, que albergan los espacios privados de la casa. Ambos cuerpos están conectados por medio de dos gigantescas trabes de concreto que sostienen una gran cubierta de madera estructurada con grandes armaduras de alma abierta. El espacio principal de la casa se abre completamente por medio de enormes ventanales, convirtiendo el espacio interior en una terraza cubierta.
