SIZE
3000 sqft - 5000 sqft
Located at the very tip of a trapezium-shaped land
parcel, the plot has the typological particularity
of offering two access levels due to its sloping
topography. Below, the vehicle access is extended
beyond the garage by a patio providing natural light
to the areas on the base level. On the opposite,
upper section of the property, a pedestrian access
is complemented by a flight of steps leading to
the main entrance characterised by a recess in the
built volume.
The house is structured in two combined units.
The first, in lime green precast concrete, forms the
load-bearing core through the three floors of the
building. The second, also in concrete, is suspended
and cantilevers over the façades. The volume ensures
sufficient natural light and the formwork floor
has travertine cladding.
The façades are perforated by large window frames
made of solid wood that open out towards the nearby
and distant landscape. The same wood is used as
filtering elements for façades, providing good privacy
and thereby blending into the environment.
Each of the external extensions to the different
areas, necessary or complementary, is used to
structure the property, adding stability to the
ensemble.
The swimming pool also uses the topography to
complement the volumes of the patio and garage
below the plot . Equal in length to the loggia on
the upper floor, it forms, in a way, a projection of
that element.
