This house is discretely situated in the heart of a village, close to the church. The red pitched roof, the shallow bricks with contrasting mortar, and the pure composition of windows connecting each in its own particular way to the exterior world, give the house a disarming approach with a warm, human touch. Spreading across the site, the house unfolds along a sequence of inner courtyards. Each space is discovered as if one were walking in the village, encountering a square, a corner, a passageway, directed views, transitional spaces - all of this happening along a meandering route. This series of spaces, both semipublic and private, are inserted with great ingenuity. The house twists and turns, stretching between the different programs that act as the starting points for a meticulous composition in domesticity, whereby its public appearance merges seamlessly with comfortable living.
