FELIPE ESCUDERO DESIGNED A SIMPLE YET ELEGANT SINGLE-STORY HOME LOCATED NEAR THE CHIMBORAZO MOUNTAIN OF THE ANDES IN ECUADOR. FELIPE NAMED THIS FINE DESIGN THE CLOVER HOUSE DUE TO ITS TREFOIL PLAN THAT ILLUSTRATES A CURVACEOUS CONCRETE SHAPE WITH 3 PETAL-SHAPED WINGS.

CLOVER HOUSE, A LOW-COST RESIDENCE LOCATED 3,600M ABOVE SEA LEVEL WHERE TEMPERATURES ARE CONSTANTLY LOW. ONE CONTINUOUS WALL DIVIDES THE HOUSE INTO VOLUMES SO THAT ALL THE SPACES RECEIVE NATURAL SUNLIGHT THROUGHOUT THE DAY. THE RESULT IS ONE CONCRETE WALL THAT SHAPES THE INTERIOR SPACES AS MUCH AS THE EXTERIOR ONES.

Conceived for the high altitudes and extreme weather of the Andes mountain range, the walls of the retreat design the exterior spaces as much as they define the interior ones, ensuring that all parts of the dwelling receive direct sunlight throughout the day," said the architect.
