House with a Garden / OFFICE MUTO

The project offers structure through the use of a courtyard rooted in both the site itself and its surroundings architectures — This court constitutes the bare essence of the building. On the one hand the site of Vigla is characterized by its numerous traditional sheepfolds; composed of simple rectangular volumes adjoined to small courtyards that allow to increase the living space of the animals by associating the interior space to a larger outside space. On the other hand, the place itself is defined by a not very common platitude that exposes the plateau to strong winds — giving all the more relevance to the architecture of the surroundings sheepfolds.
