Villa in Tuscany

The project is an attempt to balance historical values with the needs of a modern lifestyle. Existing villa, set in a classic Tuscan landscape, has been preserved in its original structure - with a stone facade, traditional tiles and a characteristic system of solids, in which simplicity and reliability dominate. The main assumption of the expansion consisted of creating a new one, functional day space with a strong relationship with the surrounding landscape - without violating the authenticity of the historic building.

New part, Designed as a minimalist block in Corten steel and glass, contrasts with the existing stone, but he does it in a deliberate and balanced way. Her presence does not compete with historical architecture - she rather accentuate it. The use of corten allows for a harmonious transition between the texture of old stone and the raw landscape of rocks and olive trees. The transparency of the facade from the valley side allows an undisturbed view of the hills and vineyards, and at the same time opens the interior to light and variability of nature.

The pool was integrated in the observation axis, as an extension of the day zone. Its minimalist form and subdued material palette - stone, Water and green - they do not overwhelm the space, but they ton her and emphasize her meditative character. A geometric lavender is carried out along the pool, which naturally connects the residential part with the garden, giving the whole space of sensuality and rhythm.

Later in the garden, a single outer furnace with a sculptural form was incorporated, inspired by the simplicity of shepherds from the region. Also made of corten, is a focusing point in the evening holiday zone - a place for fire, Conversations and contemplation.

The whole has been designed for longevity and integration - both with a natural environment, as well as with the heritage of the place. The project does not try to be loud, but aware - responding to contemporary needs with respect for the past.
