# Rustic Contemporary Cliffside Homes The El Boldo House is Made from Concrete, Wood and Marble By Madison Mackay | Published 2018-03-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/el-boldo-house References: [uncrate](https://uncrate.com/el-boldo-house/) & [sunarq.cl](http://sunarq.cl/portfolio-item/casa-2-el-boldo-zapallar/2/) SUN Architects created a new contemporary house on the side of a cliff in Zapallar Bay -- the El Boldo House. The home features unique designs with classic materials that are all naturally sourced, such as wood, marble and concrete. Protected with large stone walls, the luxurious home is built into the landscape -- adding it into the design scheme instead of replacing it. The interior was made into a linear layout, making the transition between rooms and the outdoor living spaces seamless. The large windows allow for views of the bay in every room of the home, accenting the carefully designed interior features. The main exterior living space offers a large swimming pool that blends perfectly into the landscape. The new El Boldo House by SUN Architects was carefully created to be the perfect home for blending indoor and outdoor living spaces.
