The project

Clean-lined volumes, plenty of glass and light pouring in from above. A house seen from afar and lived from within.

Outside, the house is arranged in clean volumes, with cantilevers that cast shade and shelter the verandas. Inside, the double-height space and the high band of glass carry daylight to the heart of the house, among plants trailing down the walls.

Living, dining and kitchen form a single space facing the pool. When the glass slides open, house and garden become a single place.

01Inside and out

Living room and pool, separated only by glass.

The glass panels slide back, and the living room carries on onto the veranda. From the sofa, the view reaches the pool and the lawn.

02From above

Volumes, gardens and water in balance.

From above, the house reveals how it was conceived: clear volumes, the pool set into the land and greenery all around.

03Light from above

The day pours through the double height.

Skylighting lets the light trickle down the concrete volume, brightening the living room. The hanging garden brings the biophilia it needs: the room changes mood by the hour.
