The project is conceived as an intimate and sensory space dedicated to creation.
It draws from monolithic Mediterranean architecture, traditional patios and southern light.
The residence is organized around a central patio and distinguishes day and night zones while maintaining fluid cross circulation.
Design Approach
The project seeks to create a place of retreat and artistic production, where architecture becomes atmosphere, silence and creative energy.
Architectural Intentions
Clear volumetric hierarchy.
Framing of South and West light.
Massive arches in the facade.
Textured terracotta facades.
A glazed roof element marking the vertical axis.
