This house is conceived not only as a place to live and work, but also as an exhibition house where experimental applications of earth as a material are tested. After initial attempts to define the building’s volume through optimal exposure and orientation, the house emerges as a fragmented cube, extending in continuity with the surrounding landscape. Two strong incisions carve out terraces. The design of the rammed-earth façades further contributes to the fragmentation of the volume. Layers of flat stone act as a brake against erosion and articulate the upper and lower parts through differentiated spacing. The projecting window shutters are set deep within the walls, emphasizing their thickness and spatially connecting the interior with elements of the landscape. Thanks to its fragmented volume, the north façade remains minimal while simultaneously benefiting from solar heat gains on the other façades. The sequence of interior spaces creates a gradual unfolding of materiality, literally rising from the raw and archaic toward the refined and the exquisite. The house offers an experience that unfolds through calm spaces of retreat—a place to engage with the landscape, work remotely, create, and enjoy time, space, and light.
