01
Design concept
The courtyard is the true room of the house; every volume opens to it rather than to the view.
02
Material strategy
Rendered masonry, terrazzo floors and timber shutters.
03
Spatial planning
Each volume holds one part of daily life — arriving, gathering, resting — connected by an external stair.
04
Architectural details
Thick walls carry deep window reveals that act as seats and shading.
