The house formed its clearance by responding to the constraints and attributes of the site.

Its silhouette is divided into two wings opening onto the rural landscape; it also offers a feeling of spontaneous welcome.

It is integrated into the site’stopography, ordered simultaneously by the relief and the poor quality of the soil.
