Standing on tubular steel columns and a small cubic stone platform, ‘La Empastada House’ frames the sweeping landscapes of Los Rios province in Chile. Designed by Hebra Arquitectos, the resulting volume gently suspends over a sloping terrain with its burnt wooden cladding integrating into the natural surroundings. The exterior wall is treated with a striking ancient Japanese-style practice dubbed ‘Shou Sugi Ban’ for waterproofing and preserving wood by charring it with fire.
