In this project, the interest lies much more in the interpretation and transformation of the site than in the building itself: the transformation of the landscape into a unique, unrepeatable experience through architectural intervention.
This house later complemented an existing ensemble; by integrating the house into existing surrounding walls, it does not form the centre of the site, but appears as a clear independent structure through protruding elements. The house is defined by a series of different spaces created by the sun and the view.
Light and view are transformed into different emotions. The architecture becomes an inseparable part of the place, the place remains silent without the architecture.
