The villa is situated on a piece of land that enjoys a splendid view of Lugano Lake.

The suggestive view and the impending presence of the rocky mass behind the site have dictated the principles of inclusion of the entire building. The villa relates to the rock – from which it originates – in a dynamic dialogue, and at the same time, stretches towards the lake.
