LOCATION : Pordenone, ITALY
PROGRAM : Design and Construction of a private house
APPOINTMENT : Architect and Interior design
DATE : 1995
The project for this newly built private residence located on a suburban lot in a residential neighborhood of Pordenone, Italy, starts from the intention to reinvent the traditional typology of local rural houses, with elongated rectangular plan, by the introduction of a geometrically undefined volume that contaminates the traditional construction.
The juxtaposition of these two volumes generates unexpected spatial relationships suggesting a new organization of inner spaces but also stimulating a dynamic composition of the built volumes.
The project is a case study of possible relationships that emerge between a pure, defined volume, in its proportions and shape, and a volume whose geometry appears to be in the process of taking shape, a “moving” one.
Interior spaces are freed by any preordered hierarchy to allow spatial overlapping and visual intrusions of one space into the other thus generating diagonal and unexpected views through the spaces instead of creating a traditional sequence of predictable ones.
The project goal is to explore the reinvention of domestic life starting from a traditional and apparently freezed scheme that finds new life from the whole new relationship imposed by the presence of an unexpected volume.
