PROJECT OVERWIEW

The architecture of the villa takes its clues from the horizontal lines of the landscape: the river with the woods in the background on its both sides. The villa is therefore designed in three long white horizontal planes that almost seem to be floating due to the neutral black wall tiles that blend to the dark woods behind the house. The South facade is designed with vertical timber slates in betwee black wall tiles that blend to the dark woods behind the house. The South facade is designed with vertical timber slates in between the glazing that he South facade

The house is composed of stacked horizontal volumes that open toward the lake, with expansive glazing and continuous terraces. A large wooden deck and infinity pool form the primary outdoor living area, visually extending the interior spaces into the landscape. The design emphasizes orientation, openness, and a seamless transition between built form and nature.
