House FAR 1 - this house is an architectural device to select the sunlight.
The architectural shape is strongly characterized by large elements that have the purpose to catch the natural light; the composition emphasizes these elements that have been transformed in large towers and volumes protagonists of the architecture.
The whole is such a device to selection of the natural light, oriented to optimize the internal visual comfort.
The sunlight is captured at the high levels and channeled vertically until to the main level and then below toward the underground through linear cuts separating the orizontal floors from the vertical perimetral surfaces.
Every floor becomes an abstract architectural element detached from the walls to allow this light flow; the feeling that the customer will receive is a sensation of a total spatial fluidity horizontally and vertically that will allow visual axis very long with a great deepness underlined by the natural light.
The detachment of the floors has been thought also with the intent to create plans shaped differently for each different level, forming balconies and views from which it will be possible to see the internal and the external environments in one unique whole uninterrupted space's flow.
These vertical spaces will allow also the passive control of the internal microclimate evacuating the excess heat through the sunlight-towers and creating a natural circulation from the lower level to the higher level.
