AVETRANA- ARCH EXERCISE II

Family villa.
Avetrana, Italy, 2013
Commissioned project.
Under development

This private villa in the landscape is the second chapter of our experimentation on the ‘arch’ archetype.
While in the first project we tested the arch bi-dimensionally, here we extrude it in one direction, creating a sequence of barrel domes. The concept is based on the free adaptation of these linear volumes, in order to react to the landscape. A courtyard, the garage entrance and a swimming pool intrude the volumes, erasing the separation between interior and exterior space.
