这座房子位于El Toscal，是圣克鲁斯-德特内里费的一个被遗忘的街区，被宣布为历史遗址，但没有特别的城市规划。该项目是关于1912年的一栋处于废墟状态的房子的修复。拟议的修复并不是为了保持历史城市的不变形象，而是一种有控制的修改，允许在不抹杀该地本质的情况下进行演变。考虑到建筑的环境价值，由其体积、立面和材料构成；并从对传统建筑的重新解释出发，该房屋已被预测为一个房屋-天井方案。
The house is located in El Toscal, a forgotten neighborhood of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, declared a historic site but without a special urban plan. The project is about the rehabilitation of a house from 1912 that was in a state of ruin. The proposed rehabilitation is not intended to maintain an immutable image of the historic city, but a controlled modification that allows evolution without erasing the essence of the place. Considering the environmental values of the building, constituted by its volumetry, facade, and materiality; and from the reinterpretation of traditional architectures, the house has been projected with a house-patio scheme.
现有的小型通风天井被扩大，占据了整个建筑的横向中心线–从墙到墙–成为房子真正的类型学中心。建筑物的第二层从立面线后退，减少了它在街道上的存在，并为主要的卧室提供了一个露台。正如传统的加那利建筑中常见的那样，楼梯位于通往天井的走廊左侧，它是不同房间的衔接元素。楼梯的第一个台阶与其他台阶不同，让人想起加那利群岛的老房子里常见的玄武岩片。
The small existing ventilation patio is expanded, occupying the entire transversal centreline of the building -from wall to wall- becoming the true typological center of the house. The second floor of the building is set back from the façade line, reducing its presence from the street and generating a terrace for the main bedroom. As is common in traditional Canarian architecture, the staircase is located on the left side of the gallery open to the patio and it is an articulating element for the different rooms. The first step of the staircase differs from the others, recalling that basalt piece so common in old Canarian houses.
在材料方面，现有的墙，定义了房子的围墙，根据不同的情况，被暴露在外面或用石灰砂浆完成。新的建筑是用裸露的混凝土执行的，有不同的表面处理。
Regarding materiality, the existing walls that define the enclosure of the house are projected exposed or finished with lime mortar, depending on the case. The new construction is executed in exposed concrete, with different finishes.
