Fully insulated to manage heat loss, it
comprises solar panels while the roof
was designed with recycled metal
paneling. Cisterns allow the collection
of natural rainwater that is then reused
for irrigation and filtered with charcoal
for domestic drinking water. Spread
over 4,000 square feet over two levels,
the house also has 2,000 square
feet of outdoor decks and terraces.
Inside, natural stone floors harvested
in Colombian quarries combine with
Italian marble and stone, and custom-
made furniture from Bogotá. The five
bedrooms all have their own ensuite
bathroom and the public areas are
organized in an open plan that creates
a sense of flow.
