"Arupo rises serenely before the Ilalo volcano, in the Cornejo neighborhood of Conocoto. It is the home of a couple who embrace retirement not as an ending but as a threshold into a different time: slower in work, yet more intense in love for their children and grandchildren. An intimate refuge, yet openready to welcome family, friends, and the flow of life itself."

Arupo rises before the Ilalo volcano in the Cornejo neighborhood of Conocoto as a home for a retired couple. The house frames retirement as a threshold into a slower daily rhythm and intensified family relationships. Spaces prioritize intimacy while remaining open to welcome children, grandchildren, family, and friends. The design fosters connection to landscape and social flow, balancing refuge and hospitality. The project includes detailed drawings, structural calculations, and coordinated carpentry, plumbing, and electrical installations to support durable multigenerational living. Materials and layout encourage slow, attentive domestic life.
