The design of the subterranean house leaves one side exposed and covers the others with soil, protecting and insulating them. The exposed face provides, through the penetration of sunlight, the necessary sun exposure and the transfer of heat to the interior of the residence. For this reason the legitimate orientation of the exposed face is the south. Large openings and the use of external canopies to avoid radiation in the summer are essential. In many cases, air circulation and light access to the 'back' part of the dwelling are provided with atriums.

The subterranean house includes a single-story residence with a total of four bedrooms - three en-suite bedrooms and a master, has its own access, outdoor space and is completely independent. Great emphasis has been placed on the outdoor areas as they are the ones that are used the most in the summer residences. Their design contributes to the creation of relaxing conditions and at the same time creates the feeling that these spaces are in harmony with the natural environment. The single living room, kitchen, dining room as well as the master bedroom and an en-suite bedroom, face and open towards the exterior spaces for direct access and continuous interaction between outside and inside areas. The remaining two bedrooms open onto internal atriums. The residence also has its own water tank and septic tanks have been provided.
