Synopsis

In this unique family house, Origami House, private housing project by Carlos Ferrater and Xavier Martí, there appears to be no staircase and that none of the service facilities of the house are visible, all hidden away on a lower floor, which leads us to believe this is not a house but many houses at the same time. It is more a pavilion than a house, given that the only thing to emerge is a large open level of rectangular panels in a bright white as if it were a temporary Japanese pavilion or a marquee. The book includes an interview of the two architects: Ferrater and Martí by Emilio Tuñón as well as an extensive photo coverage and a selection of plans.
