In Luanco, a charming but traditional Asturian fishing village on the Atlantic coast of Spain, a family sought a functional, flexible, and playful house. The project optimizes the spaces on each floor by twisting the staircase to offer the best distribution on each level, while the exterior reinterprets local regulations and traditional elements.
