Architect Thomas Löwenstein has designed this black wooden house near Los Molles in Chile.

Situated on a hillside near the beach town of Los Molles in Chile, this house provides breathtaking views towards the valley with the mountains in the back on one side and views of the beach on the other. Designed by Thomas Löwenstein for a family, the walls of the house are covered with burnt wood while all interior spaces are characterized by white painted wood. A staircase in the middle of the house connects the lover level with the upper level. All photographs below were taken by Alejandro Gálvez.
