Andres Remy was born in General Conesa, Argentina in 1974. In 1997 he designed and built his first project, the KRANEX Institute Of Radiology. Two years later he repeated the experience in the Riavitz Apartment while he was still a student. Recommended by his former professor Carolina Buzzetti he was hired in 1999 by Rafael Viñoly Architects (RVA) to conduct a research for Rafael Viñoly Monograph.
The waterfall house was conceived by the request of a young business man in a closed neighborhood. The particularities and requisites of the client, among with the lot’s characteristics, established the path to follow in the design process.The borders of the small lot we are referring to, seem to disappear in the predominant visuals: the lake.The surrounding houses, the sun’s path and the visual were needed to understand the emplacement.
At the back of the lot, at the ground level the lake has a shy presence. So it was considered to raise up to get a better look at the lake. This is the reason why it was decided to place the social area in the upper level, conquering the panoramic views to the lake during the day.
It is there where the water shows up. Unexpected at that height, it embraces the architecture and paints it with reflections, bringing life and movement.
