Modern Residence in a Rural Landscape
This single-storey residence unfolds gently across a softly sloping rural terrain, nestled within an olive grove and harmoniously integrated into the natural environment. The composition is defined by clean geometric volumes, minimal lines, and a strong horizontal orientation that follows the morphology of the landscape.
The stone-clad exterior pays tribute to local architectural traditions, while the use of modern materials such as metal and exposed concrete creates a balanced coexistence of the old and the new. The flat roof and large sliding glass openings enhance the contemporary aesthetic and ensure maximum transparency and interaction with the outdoors.
The design is organized around a central entrance axis, which leads directly to the outdoor area and the pool, offering visual continuity with the landscape from the moment of entry. The infinity-edge pool and expansive terrace with wooden sun loungers emphasize the experience of Mediterranean outdoor living and offer moments of relaxation with panoramic views of the surrounding hills.
Lighting has been thoughtfully designed to highlight the varying textures of the materials, while the use of native Mediterranean plants around the residence helps to embed the building into its natural context without artificial interventions.
This is an architectural project that approaches modern living with respect for the landscape, promoting timeless aesthetics, functionality, and a profound connection to nature.
