Bedroom tower viewed from living
space

Design :  The house is organised around three courtyards with external circulation between living and sleeping zones. The living space and bedroom tower are positioned on either side of the footprint of the former workshop.

Storey-height retaining walls hold back the higher-level neighboursð gardens on either side of the court, the living room roof is on the same level as the adjoining gardens.

The cast-in-situ cranked roof gives the living space a cave-like character. Cave, courtyard and tower are the constituent elements of a concrete house excavated from the existing conditions of the site.
