Brief
A villa in a classical register, for a client who did not want a modern house.
Constraint
Classical detailing is unforgiving. Proportion is the entire discipline and there is nowhere to hide a wrong dimension.
Approach
The order is set first and everything else is subordinated to it — the same method as the parametric projects, applied to a different geometry.
Material palette
- Moulded cornice
- Stone
- Panelled joinery
Outcome
Photography for this project is limited. It is shown as what exists rather than padded out.
