Description
The building consists of a single white volume with closed planes covered by slatted shutters. These panels are aligned with the metric of the spans that completly tear the fronts of the surfaces. On the side facing the public road apperas the collected entrance, flanked by the kitchen and the office.
On the opposite side, the living room extends across the entire width of the house, which in turn has direct communication with the orientation of the openings, thus distinguishing two types of rooms, giving them their own characteristics.
