BUILDING TYPE:
Freestanding houses

It was the setting, on the edge of a wood, of this functionalist house (white rendering and silver steel frames, lintels and columns) that prompted this house's two distinct 'countenances': a taut living room facade dominated by horizontal strip windows oriented towards the view and the sun and the more sculptural treatment of the entrance facade. Here the severe, rectangular character of the house is relieved by a striking composition of jutting storage area, balcony and glazed wall.
