The S House by Domenack Architects has an open-faced concept, with much of its interior exposed to the elements outside. Considering that the house is located in Peru, these elements are enjoyable throughout most times in the year. If the place was located in Canada, the residences would receive constant blasts of cold.
Luckily for the owners, they live in a sunny climate and have decided to make the most of this with their recently built house by Domenack Architects. The back of the place looks out onto a yard and swimming pool. Instead of having this spot closed off from the inside, the living room seamlessly goes into the exterior, without any need to open doors. Almost half of the place is built like this, with the other half sheltered.
