The design of the windows takes into consideration circulation routes and floor levels to provide panoramic vistas on the gardens and surrounding landscape. A meandering timber roof supported by three concrete chimneys connects old and new, interior and exterior. The roof structure is visible throughout the house and unfolds from the entrance area where you almost touch the structure all the way to the ridge above the bedrooms. The light interiors – with wooden and terrazzo floors, white walls and light coloured wood – contrast with the exterior’s bricks and concrete.
