She House

The lot on which "She House" stands has a rectangular shape of 860sqm on the Turin hills in a residential area, with a 270 ° view of the plain below. The new residence which measures 600sqm distributed on three levels including the terraces, is surrounded by compliant architecture and in line with a traditional vision.

The client's request was to live in a house with a contemporary cut. The project is broken down and reassembled making it unique among the architecture of the place. The villa rests on a reinforced concrete volume and is spread over two floors above ground and a basement.

The house opens to the living areas on the south side and the bedroom area to the north and allows vertical connections stairs and the lift. To access "She House" you go up a staircase covered in local stone that crosses the Japanese garden, also studied in every detail. Upon entering the house, you are struck by the double-height living room and the glass walls that maintain a constant dialogue with the outside, creating changing scenery on the seasons.

In the living room we are greeted by an enveloping Standard sofa by Edra and a wood- burning fireplace. The furnishings in this room are the bench designed by Lissoni for Porro, the Cattelan coffee table, the Besana carpet and the Flos and Vibia lights. Here we find ourselves in the presence of a large window that reveals the communication stairs between the basement (service rooms, hobby room and garage) and the first floor.
