A House Among Trees by Martín Fernández de Lema


The house designed by Martín Fernández de Lema is situated in a forest site on the beach of Mar Azul, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The relationship between inside and out is important to create seamless indoor-outdoor living. Allowing a tree to grown up and over the entry porch is a gesture that’s not only fraught with meaning but also with a beauty that will only increase over time. The natural and the man-made will co-exist side by side.

    A good man would prefer to be defeated than to defeat injustice by evil means.
