A grand villa reimagined with a seamless connection to its sloping site, featuring a spacious living area, a generous outdoor room, and a central kitchen designed as heavy stone islands that bridge indoor and outdoor spaces.

A grand and ornate villa lacked connection to its sloping site. The project creates a living area from half the house, ending in a generous shuttered outdoor room. The roof cantilevers creating an illusion of weightlessness. Central to the design is the kitchen, conceived as a pair of heavy stone islands. The kitchen can relate to indoor and outdoor spaces simultaneously.
