A walk through the Casa Cuarzo project: the entrance under the curved canopy, the living area open to the garden and the pool at dusk

Bellaterra · Cerdanyola del Vallès

The house is drawn. All that remains is to live in it.

Walk through the house

The setting

There are plots in Bellaterra, and there is this plot.

1,394.89 m² on Carrer de Can Llobet, in the most sheltered position in Bellaterra. No frontage onto a through road. Away from the motorway and the FGC railway. Mature trees, and detached houses on large plots.

The house

The executive project, stamped by the Catalan architects' association, sets out a detached house of 471.44 m² built over three levels.

The section

Hand-drawn longitudinal section: the house stepping down the slope, the garage below ground and trees to either side
Architecture should belong to the setting where it will stand, and adorn the landscape rather than ruin it.
Frank Lloyd Wright
The house steps down the plot's natural slope. Cross ventilation. Direct sun in the living room between 10:00 and 12:00 solar time at the winter solstice.

Already resolved

  1. A stamped executive project. Not a basic one.
  2. A fixed-price construction tender, broken down by trade. Available to a qualified buyer.
  3. Cleared site. Demolition complete, earthworks done and the trees removed — but for one kept by the street and taken into the project.
  4. Water and electricity connections executed.
  5. The complete municipal file. Construction tax and planning fee settled, bonds paid.

Two years of process and a substantial part of the pre-construction cost, already covered.

The land, the project and the works.

A fixed-price building contract on the buyer's own plot: a price broken down by trade, a programme and a single party responsible for the works, with the project and the licence already granted.

The plot and the works belong to the buyer from day one; construction is financed with a Spanish autopromotor loan, for which the stamped project and the municipal licence are a precondition.

The commercial terms are provided with the documentation.
