Text description provided by the architects. Located on Route 12 in an environment of olive plantations, which shape a horizon of peaks and streams, the genesis of the house arises from the need to respect and challenge the geography in a parallel way. In other words, the project seeks to establish its own rules and limits to be able to build a house that, above all, appropriates the terrain autonomously and in consideration of its own intentions.
A line of rocks serves as the main support and abutment to establish the geometric reference axes from which the house is structured, by grouping the private sector in a parallel strip above this natural line and placing the public space in a 45-degree turn, generating multiple links with the environment.
On the exterior, a large triangular pergola underlines the importance of the covered outdoor spaces in these latitudes. It is barely supported by a grid of slender pillars that recall an artificial forest and becomes the place where the days pass: an in-between space of the natural environment and the domestic interior that in its typological and material indefiniteness permits multiple forms of use.
The neutrality of its materials invites the various uses that could be imagined to develop there, almost without limitations.
