CONCEPT

Concept for a contemporary beach house on the Pacific beach of Guatemala.

THE SOLUTION

The typical beachfront house in Guatemala is oftentimes developed with a large open thatch (palm) roof.  Playing on this ‘umbrella roof concept’ we developed a contemporary version of this prototypical beach house design, updated in the use of materials, such as steel and tropical woods.
