“Surprise me with a house” was the client’s demand. The family: a father and two grown children. Three music lovers.

His desire was to have a functional house and, at the same time, different from anything seen inside the residential condominium where he would be.

Given the mission, the idea of ​​a striking element emerges, the robust Y-pillar. In keeping with the requirement, the architecture office sought to create an unconventional project: a house without an entrance door, with a swimming pool in front and the landscaping integrated into many of the rooms.
