Sumario:[EN] The article exposes the creative, design and phenomenological process of the project design and construction of the Jacaranda House (2016-2018), a single-family exempt house located in the Natural Park of Cabo de Gata-Níjar, in Almería. Jacaranda House is built with an exposed concrete structure and formwork using the traditional system of wooden boards. In addition, the walls are built with rustic brick in some of its exterior faces. Jacaranda House work aims to presents itself as if it was an inhabited structure, an infrastructure arranged on the desert landscape of Cabo de Gata. The formal abstraction of this landscape coexists with the organicism with which the terracing of the plot and the garden is resolved. The following article is developed with the help of the plans, drawings and diagrams, as well as the final photographs and images of the construction process. A brief theoretical and historical reflection on the use of exposed concrete in domestic architecture will be linked to the description of the construction job.
