From the architect: Partial demolition of the internal floor allows the house to be flooded with natural light, while connecting the levels through the vacuum.

On the first floor, a double-height living room and a dining room define an open space in which the kitchen and the library-tv room stand out as a series of blocks. These volumes are connected through a slate flooring up to the staircase, like a black ribbon that conveys to the private spaces and terrace in the attic, where a central hall dedicated to gathering and playing distributes the rooms and services.

On the other side, the completely glazed panoramic terrace becomes a kaleidoscope able to reverberate the sunlight inside. Bamboo canes and embedded floor spotlights define a new interior scenography, that visually and perceptively links indoor and outdoor.
