The major
constraints of this project, its steep site, compressed between existing buildings
and very limited allowance of development volume have shaped the form of this
house. It is inserted into the earth with 2 covered parking spaces to the
front from where a small staircase leads up to the main living zones on the
first floor and further to the bedrooms on the second floor.Compact circulation_Because of the limited available floor area the staircase and circulation
had to be designed in a very space saving way – this lead to the continuous
organization in the first floor: The single functions cooking/ eating and
living are positioned around the circulation core in order to give connectivity
and privacy at the same time to the single activities- the staircase and built
in furniture piece which is storage ,oven and services cavity at the same
time divides and connects as a short cut at the same time.
In the second floor the single sleeping rooms are connected to each other
in the shortest possible way.View and shelter_
Given the prominent location of the site directed towards the South and the
dolomites we opened the façade as much as possible in order to widen
up the tights interiors – on both main floors ample balconies and terraces
double the available floor area and offer great places to play for the kids
and rest for the parents. In order to provide shelter from the views of the
passing- by road a layer of wooden sticks was wrapped around the big openings
directed to the South – depending on the varying size of the openings
they provide different degrees of shelter and intimacy.
