Once you arrive at the apartment it is separated in 2 half levels, the first containing the kitchen dining and living area then half flight down the t.v.room and the master bedroom. Taking advantage of the roof of the existing house and its skylights this roof becomes a terrace with the remainings of the chipped lava rocks used for the main wall of the house, the skylights become acrylic stools, benches and chaise lounges that change color with a led system inside. A selection of prehispanic organ plants is made to add a touch of vegetation giving this area a lunar feel.
