The choice of these stone dwellings, responded to the best orientation to protect from the winds, should have with air intake, light and enough space to store their food. Times have changed, but certain basic human needs have remained. The work consists of a temporary cabin, for a young couple of climbers, lovers of rock sports. The main restriction was the limited surface, but the user's physical ability allowed to increase the surface vertically, expanding the space with a double height. Programmatically, the basic and essential actions for living for short periods were accommodated, considering the minimum space for sleeping, eating, cleaning and allowing extra room for itinerant users. The refuge is located in Las Trancas, Pinto, in the south central zone of Chile. The town stands out for its mountain range landscape that hosts a high variety of extreme sports. The idea of ​​a uniform shell (wall and roof) that involves a retracted pediment, playing with the full of wood and glazed emptiness, is proposed. This full on the main facade, replicates the verticality of the rock wall that is observed at the bottom of the land. The asymmetric break of the roof allows the correct draining of the snow. Internally, it generates greater amplitude for the attic that floats on the only closed volume. Spatially, an open space is identified, on the ground floor the areas for cooking, eating, heating and working are organized. On the line of the kitchen and the bathroom, united by a small vertical scale if you locate a floating platform that in a certain part stands out to accommodate the sleeping area. To avoid saturating the small space, the floor, sky and wall are covered with the same material.
