The house is located at the edge of a residential zone and along the boundary of an agricultural area. The site, characterized by limited access and a steep slope, overlooks an open view onto a valley of landscape interest.
In order to avoid an overly expansive footprint, the project is developed over three levels. The lower ground floor (R-2) and part of level R-1, clad in stone, are embedded into the natural slope of the terrain, while the ground floor (R0) and the remaining part of R-1, finished in timber cladding, rest upon the stone volumes. The composition is thus articulated into staggered platforms following the oblique geometry of the buildable area and respecting the natural topography.
In reference to local vernacular architecture, openings within the stone cladding are deliberately punctuated and restrained, whereas large, continuous glazed openings are positioned within the timber-clad volumes. Particular attention has been given to the visual and physical relationship between interior and exterior spaces.
The street-level volume is intentionally compact, fully open at the level of the carport and designed with a flat roof in order to preserve views towards the valley.
Through its siting strategy, volumetric composition, and material choices, the project integrates seamlessly into its context. It asserts a contemporary architecture inspired by regional references, expressed through calm lines and restrained tones.
“A haven of peace,” according to the client.
