The house is located below the main road of the village.
The access to the plot is positioned perpendicular to the secondary road in order to limit the height difference between the public space and the house.
The project takes advantage of the main lines of the site by positioning itself parallel to the contour lines and fitting into the natural slope of the plot.
The project’s composition can be summarized by a stone wall against the ground and a wooden volume placed in front of it.
The sober facades clearly express a living space opened as well as a night/service space more closed.
The stone wall continues from the outside to the inside of the house to increase the belonging of the living room to the garden.
The two different plot’s levels and the position of the wooden volume give privacy to the glazed spaces.
