he students from Oxford School of Architecture were invited to visit the beautiful foundation which is the actual house of Cesar Manrique. The house is a beautiful representation of Manrique's perceptions. It is a semi-underground space with extremely wide 'breathing' area. The interior is just adorable. We had the chance to see the most private part of his house which is the bathroom. He used to be a great lover and that is proved by the photographs we all saw in his residence.

Mirador Del Rio is on the North cape of Lanzarote and it is 479m high. It towers over the island lying to the north like an eagle's nest, with a stupendous view across to Graciosa, Montana Clara and Alegranza. The beautiful building is a fabulous example of how the architect tried to avoid massive structures but use the natural qualities for designing a beautiful space.
