"The Flamboyant House emerges from a dialogue with a partially occupied territory. Situated on a 3,000 m plot, the proposal begins with the recognition of three significant pre-existing elements: a constructed "L"-shaped house, an existing swimming pool, and a large flamboyant tree on the site. These conditions are not treated as limitations but embraced as structuring elements of the project, guiding decisions regarding placement, volumetry, and spatiality."

The Flamboyant House responds to a partially occupied territory on a 3,000 m plot by integrating three existing elements: an L-shaped house, a swimming pool, and a large flamboyant tree. The design treats these pre-existing conditions as catalysts for organization rather than constraints, using them to determine placement and volumetric relationships. Spatial decisions prioritize continuity with the site through orientation and form that relate to the tree and pool. Embracing legacy elements informs program distribution and circulation, producing a composition where architecture emerges from dialogue with the existing fabric and landscape.
