Corallo House

Corallo House in Guatemala City is a luxurious home, which was designed by Paz Arquitectura, was built into a lush hillside in Guatemala City's Santa Rosalía area.



The house isn't just surrounded by trees; it actually has mature trees growing right through the living room. Corallo House integrates the existing forest into the layout of the house.



The design process began with the aim to preserve the existing trees, in order to have the trees interact with the living space.



The floor plan is free of columns and the changes in level adapt to the existing topography. Both façades are mostly glass in order to connect the interior to the exterior.
