He has recently started writing about the architectural projects that catch his imagination. Urban Villa in Florence, Italy by Architettura MatassoniMay 9th, 2013 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Architettura Matassoni The project was created with the intention of transforming the strong physical limitations, geometric and area’s rules of the intervention in a series of architectural cues; the available surface is in fact quite limited in size and characterized from a trapezoidal shape and has a potential edificatoria relatively limited; The building area is inserted in an urban environment characterized by a low quality and from a certain density of the buildings, with the consequent danger of visual interference from the near buildings.

Thanks to the \”introverted\” composition adequately protected from the outside with dividing walls of calibrated height and from a planimetric geometry like \”L\”, it was possible to ensure the necessary privacy and, at the same time, despite the small size of the area, it was possible to create spaces of unusual deepness.

The space includes a formal garden structured in terraces with a basin water that reflects the volume of the main suspended sleeping room.
