Bonet House
This house, designed by the architect himself, is located in the vicinity of the village of Sant Antoni de Vilamajor, near the southern slopes of the Montseny massif, in a place where there is an abundance of cultivated plots and agricultural constructions. The house stands as a critique of the typology of conventional chalets and their habitual lack of adaptation to the surroundings. Taking the local landscape as a reference, the house is conceived as a henhouse open to the exterior, whose characteristics are: elementariness in the construction, integration into the staircase of the surroundings, and a concreteness given by the objectivity of the needs. The construction is carried out in parts over a long period of time, responding to the requirements that have arisen. There is a constant, however, in the consideration of climate and landscape from a mimetic attitude towards the place where it is located. This attitude can be seen in the definition of the limits of the plot and the implantation of the house: the plot has no fence, there is an access road that is surrounded only by perimeter vegetation and cultivation, imitating the agricultural constructions. In this case, a careful study of the gradation of the passage from public to private is required. This vegetation that generates perimeters has well-defined functions: defining privacy, climate control and adding to the growth factor.1975 - 1982
