Located in the town of Nazaret, in the municipality of Teguise, it draws attention for the unique setting in which it is located, an old volcanic quarry, and for the use of the lava itself as a construction material. Lagomar is, therefore, a unique complex whose architecture is absolutely conditioned by the whim of nature, since the current tunnels, nooks and crannies and terraces were created at the time by the advance of lava in the midst of a volcanic eruption. In this sense, human creativity is just one more ingredient in a work sculpted by nature.The architectural project of Lagomar comes from a commission made by the British Sam Benady, who wanted to build his house in this unusual place. Thus, Benady entrusted the conception of the building to Lanzarote’s most famous artist, César Manrique, although a large part of the final execution was carried out by Jesús Soto. The collaborations between Manrique and Soto did not occur exclusively in the Lagomar project, but together they contributed to the creation of some of the most iconic monuments on the island, such as the Jardín de Cactus or the Mirador del Río.
