This home intentionally clings to the very edge of an impressive plot of land. Here a scenic area, meadows and garden form the transition to the living area, rather than the other way around.

The perspectives in this Cubist conception playfully interact with the surrounding greenery. A multitude of vistas direct your gaze each time to a different and unusual point in the surroundings, just as binoculars allow you to zoom in. That is why glass has been used sparingly, allowing one to discover something new in every corner, in every vista.

Located on a plateau, the house is constructed entirely of Roman travertine in a grey hue that blends in with the surroundings. The same material was also used for the terrace and swimming pool. The warm wenge wood below the awnings beautifully draws in the earthy tones via the ceilings and beams.

The different living modules are connected by awnings so that the surrounding landscape can be enjoyed to the fullest extent. At the same time, the sense of wideness is broken up by patios that serve as cosy cocoons.
