Effebi house - a natural space focused on those fundamental human needs concerning the “ ancestral shelter”

The work is the result of the refurbishment of a seventies block's flat, made for a four people family and located near Arezzo, Tuscany, in Italy.
The client's brief program included a whole living area composed by the entrance, the living room, the dining room, the kitchen with a small closed storage. Going on through a common wardrobe space there is the night area comprehensive of three bedrooms and twoo bathrooms.
Because of the common property of the external surfaces with the other owner , the perimeter walls couldn't be modified and the architects have had to think the project as inside an untouchable box.
Despite the delicate existing masonry, the architects projected one whole environment for the living-area obtainable realising twoo wide openings.
To make the most of the surface, using the smallest amount of money they also decided to use plasterboard panels, a poor material but adapt to complex shapes; the purpose of the project is to create a fluid space despite the rigid perimeter surfaces.
It had to be dynamic and, as much as possible abstract, that means surreal to avoid the feeling to be inside a simple box made by ortogonal surfaces.
To do it the wood floorings of the living area rise on the wall and the ceilings go down creating the cuts in which are settled the strip for the led lighting.
Using these sculpted forms and breaking the "box", the architects wanted to create the sensation of a natural space, that focuses on those fundamental human needs concerning the “ ancestral shelter”; this means an essential architecture and in a certain sense, primitive, that means devoid of sophistications and capable of comunicating with the unconscious, creating artificial micro-landscapes and spaces suitable for living innately.
This is our attitude.
