Thinking of a living space as a home means thinking of a space of refuge and fulfillment. The site here has an exceptional character; it is an exclusive place, where the notion of integration into a landscape takes on its full meaning. The land, which presents a certain slope, ends in a promontory overlooking the valley. Geographically located at one end of this valley, the site benefits from a spectacular perspective on the distance. In this privileged context, the house had to invite itself with humility and discretion. We pay a lot of attention to the environment and the context in which a new project is located. Thinking of a living space as a home means thinking of a space of refuge and fulfillment. When we visited the Rosis site, we were able to appreciate the exceptional character of the place, an exclusive place, where the notion of integration into a landscape takes on its full meaning.
With its generous glazing, the house lets the landscape shine through. Inside, a play on perspective and transparency is designed to invite nature into the view. The house presents itself as a variation of volumes inserted between two floors. The reading of the horizontal lines generated by these floors highlights the rugged topography of the site. Slightly elevated, a levitating effect evokes respect for nature, as if there were a hesitation in placing an object on a fragile support.
In front of the house, the centrally located entrance is easily identified by its path and pergola. A thick wall naturally directs the visitor and clearly structures the house into two zones. The first, very transparent, is intended to open to the exterior and houses the kitchen and living room. A large covered terrace expands the perception of space. The second, more opaque, houses the bedrooms, each of which has a bathroom and storage space. The idea is to rediscover the hotel style.
