Sumit Singhal loves modern architecture. He comes from a family of builders who have built more than 20 projects in the last ten years near Delhi in India. He has recently started writing about the architectural projects that catch his imagination. Along the Levee in Turin, Italy by R3ARCHITETTIJune 26th, 2018 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: R3ARCHITETTI This project arises from the client’s need to combine a two-room and a three-room flat into one apartment that would better accommodate the family’s new needs. The project strategy entails a clear division between the living and the sleeping areas and includes, within the distributive scheme, a little study area that would host the administrative headquarters of the family business.

This expedient has allowed us to conceive the living area as a sort of ‘outdoor’ space for the family’s most social activities.

Special care has been given in finding their harmonic combination, often obtained through contrast: the earth’s dense texture is softened by the ethereal quality of the resin, the harshness of concrete is tempered by the warmth of wood.
