La Zagaleta House, Luxury House Design in Spain by Peter Thomas de Cruz

Posted by worldhouse on March 12, 2010

Situated on a hillside site inland from the coast of southern Spain, this luxury house was designed by Peter Thomas de Cruz. Adding to the sense of spectacle the house is dramatically cut in two perpendicular to the gallery with a glass-floored dining space bridging the gap between the two halves and linking the cooking space to the living space. The parallel gallery sits astride an internal pool and, when all the glazing is fully retracted, both the gallery and the dining space become bridges fully open to the air. The calmness of the house is accentuated by water flowing from the gallery courtyard pool down over a slate-finished waterfall beneath the dining room to meet the lowest of the two connected swimming pools.
