This is one gorgeous house.

Guerrero House, located at Vejer de la Frontera, Cádiz, Spain, was designed by the famous Spanish architect Alberto Campo Baeza.

The play on light, space, and proportion is extraordinary. A small opening in an 8 metre high square wall is the only entrance. Centre of the house is the 9x9 metre central square, which has a ceiling of again 8 metres high.

All these bold measurements together aid to what Campo Baeza calls the construction of a luminous shadow. Now that's poetry.
