“Ay mi lagartija que come araña, corre por la casa - la salamanqueja que la acompaña, trepa las pitayas”

Sometime you just want to get away, relax, escape with your own thoughts for the weekend. And sometimes you want to bring the whole crazy family with you.

El Gallinero is built for both worlds - cleverly designed to expand and contract depending on the number of family members present at any given time. A primary suite on the ground floor is semi-detached from the main house, ready to serve as a brief nightly escape without feeling the need to “open up” the entire home. When friends join a second, smaller suite is called into service. And a series of upstairs bunkrooms spring into action when the full extended family gets together. Everything revolves around a double-height, pass-thru living room and oversized kitchen used frequently by the chef-homeowner.
