This building designed by me is situated on the slopes of Mount San Salvatore on the border of the old centre of Brusino Arsizio, Ticino-Switzerland. Surrounding the lot there are the main services to the village, such as restaurants, bars, bus stop, municipal parking, etc. ... The land is in direct contact with the lake and therefore has a berth dock, private facilities and existing wharf. Access to the building is therefore also possible via boat. In my project I tried to create a relationship between the residential space and the beautiful view of the lake surrounding the site location. The house is designed so as to be entirely closed on three sides and opens up solely and completely to the lake to fully enjoy the view it offers.
The project involved the construction of two levels; one at street level (first floor) with the main access and containing the heated living space, whilst the floor at garden level includes additional services such as docks, storage, the grill corner and a large porch for outdoor dining. The two levels are connected by an external staircase. The staircase is covered with a shelter which is anchored in reinforced concrete; part of the supporting wall of the building itself. The materials used for the project are almost exclusively reinforced concrete and wood.
The structure is constructed with insulated reinforced concrete walls for the interior and wooden beams anchored to the same concrete walls. The main facade, which faces the lake, was created by using a special frame of wood and glass paneling.
