This private residence was designed for a narrow site of complex shape — where a conventional «rectangle facing the street» simply didn’t work. The house stepped away from familiar geometry and closed itself around two interior courtyards, turning its back on the neighboring plots and letting nature in from within.
From the outside — a strict white geometry framed by warm wooden window joinery. Inside — a sequence of spaces where every room receives its own light through its own courtyard. The house is divided into three blocks: private with the bedrooms, service with the kitchen, and shared with the living area. All three are oriented toward the inner courtyards.
The façades carry sun-shading screens that create sharp lines of shadow during the day and a soft rhythm of light by evening. It’s the detail that makes the house feel alive across the hours, rather than static.
The flat roof became a continuation of the house, not its final point. The accessible rooftop is designed as a private lounge with a panoramic view over the hills — a place for sunsets and outdoor dinners. The solution adds usable area without expanding the building footprint, which matters especially on a constrained site.
