The task was to design and construct a house on a heavily wooded lot. A client fancied modern shiny solutions and the classical style of country estates.

We combined classical planning practices and elements of modern architecture for facades decoration. Trees played a major role in the design. A small meadow in front of the house was left untouched. This provided enough light for living rooms.

Architecture
More
The main material of the facades is a yellow-white sandstone. The composition is maintained by a heat-treated fine African wood. In the entry zone we used marble and green onyx inlay.
Features

A fence was designed as a full-fledged element of architecture and presents as the continuation of the house due to the use of the same sandstorm as in the facades.
A portal has a unique ladder shape. It's a distinctive technique of a Venice architect Carlos Scarpa. The basement is slightly lifted above the ground. Thanks to a long narrow window overlooking the pond the majority of basement rooms are well lit.

When designing a complex space we pay great attention to landscape architecture. In this project we used the elements of 18th century garden art as well as classical and modern sculptures.
A well designed landscape not only creates a comfortable space, but also compliments architecture. Thus the owners of the house will admire the reflection of the house and pines in the smooth surface of the pond.
