Montse and Joan had a house requiring repair which they also wanted to extend. The project had intended for the garden to come inside the house which was impossible with the existing facade and the small windows. So the living space was extended outside by projecting spaces towards the courtyard. Low-cost materials and solutions were used: galvanized metal frames, corrugated polycarbonate roof panels and plexiglass for the sliding doors. An intermediate space functioning as a temperature regulator was created. This is protected by an exterior metal mesh at the top and with fishing nets in front of the facade. The garden, plants and all, has entered the house.
