Text description provided by architect.

The development comprises a two-storey villa of around 150 m², built adjacent to the existing family home dating from the late 1990s.

It consists of a large unitary gable roof housing different volumes based on a square grid. This fragmented composition, unified by its roof, makes it possible to tame the diagonal available for this house.

The ground floor comprises a living room, dining room, open-plan kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom/office.

Upstairs are three bedrooms and a mezzanine, while the basement houses the utility room, the laundry room, and a large cellar.

Thanks to its all-wood structure and facades, its large roof with thermal and photovoltaic solar panels, and its air-water heat pump heating system, the building meets the requirements of the THPE (Très Haute Performance Energétique) label.
