Estancia Ficus
About the project
This mountainside lodge doesn’t have a bedroom. We knew the client for years before this was built, and remain friends to this day, but we still don’t know where they sleep at night. We guess they weren’t satisfied with the answer either because a second stage is now in the works. This time with bedrooms.
