Experimental

Set on a circular plot, bordered by road on almost its entire perimeter, this single-storey dwelling stems from a direct reading of the site and its local building practices. The proposal reclaims vernacular elements — stone walls, timber roof structure, and traditional ceramic tiles — reinterpreting them with precision and without artifice, through an essential architectural gesture.

The spatial organisation is based on a regular metric grid, structuring the layout without the use of corridors. The arrangement of wet areas, living spaces, and bedrooms follows a logic of maximum efficiency, ensuring a clear floor plan and ease of construction. This modular system guarantees both spatial and structural coherence throughout the house.

The house is conceived as a synthesis of dwelling: reduced to what is necessary, stripped of ornament, and free from the formal excesses that characterise much of contemporary construction. Everything that remains has a purpose — structural, functional, or environmental. The relationship with the outdoors is direct, without superfluous mediation, and the material palette is honest, legible, and durable.

In a territory marked by the informality of many surrounding constructions, this proposal asserts itself through restraint, precision, and an architecture that, while rooted in tradition, puts forward a contemporary model of inhabitation — more rational, more grounded, and closer to the land and its quiet forms.
