When they came to see us, our clients were desperate because their budget didn’t fit the needs of the site they’ve chosen, located on a steep slope in the Alpine valleys.
That’s how this house came to life, supported on steel stilts, standing on the rocky part of the slope.
The main living floor is designed as a single volume. Here as well, all the window modules can be slid.
When it’s closed the space takes profit of a white translucent light while the views are framed into small patterned square windows.
