Completed on July 12, 2008, the idea behind the design of the Harrison Residence was to create a living structure that could blend into its surrondings while at the same time create a usable space for camping when the Rincon nights were full of stars.

The Harrison Residence project is a combination of ZinCo's drainage system (FD -25), Danosa Caribe waterproofing system and PR Green Design's Eco Urban blended soil.
