"THE MOST BEAUTIFUL HOUSE IN THE
WORLD" Competition
THE COMPETITION
The competition notice Ed.1991 required the
design of a building to be used as a two-family
home.
A defined lot was assigned, as well as the
distribution and dimensional requirements.
It was requested to respect the urban planning
and P.R.G. indices of the place.
The first phase of the competition was organized
in two selections (preliminary and definitive).
THE PROJECT
The project consisted in organizing the building
avoiding any specular logic of adjacent houses,
but defining interpenetrating spaces on multiple
levels, where clearly separated entrances and
living areas were identified.
With the same principle, for the work rooms,
separate and indipendent accesses were
planned, even if directly connected to the
residential wing.
Regarding its relationship with the context, the
project did not seek a mimetic morphological
approach, but rather incorporated some
typological patterns from traditional Emilian
architecture.
The symmetrical layout of the rooms recalls the
characteristics of the region's historic villas, such
as the nearby Villa Arnò in Caselline, designed by
architect Pio Casoli in Neoclassical style.
The overall layout draws on the open courtyard
typology of the Emilian rural house, with a
reference to the double-height portico,
reinterpreted in an organic manner.
The facades themselves are diversified, in terms
of treatment and design references, not only by
internal function, but also according to the visual
relationships generated by the building's
placement on the lot.
