Where Lighting and Natural Ventilation Embrace Sustainable Living
Casa D14 embodies the epitome of luxury and thoughtful design, prioritizing both functionality and aesthetics.

User Profile
The prospective residents are a family of four, comprising parents and two school-going children. This residence in Montes de Oca, with its cool climate and captivating views of the Valle Central mountains, offers an idyllic setting for a family seeking a retreat from the bustling city life.
Context
The unique terrain of the property, bordered by neighbors on three sides, presented an intriguing challenge that our architects adroitly transformed into an opportunity. The irregularly shaped land, with a narrow front, wider midsection, and pointed back, inspired a fluid design concept. This fluidity allows for versatile architectural adaptability, integrating seamlessly with the natural contours of the land.
Landscape
Drawing from Costa Rica's rustic rural aesthetics, the landscape design incorporates native fruit trees, echoing the region's traditional charm. Natural wood is a prevalent choice for interior furnishings, lending an organic touch to the living spaces. The use of untreated, locally sourced materials minimizes the project's environmental impact while enhancing its authenticity.
