The relationship with the land

The main idea of the Villa stems from the Islamic architectural tradition of the fence, through which to define a controlled nature and find a relationship with the land by creating a protected environment. The wall is the element that enables this action and generates the spaces of the house and four gardens: the forest, the olive grove, the orchard and the Islamic garden.

The four gardens

The Islamic architectural tradition relates directly to the archetype of the enclosure as a way of defining a controlled nature in which man can find his relationship with the land.
The main idea of the Villa stems from this primordial principle of enclosure, of creating a protected environment.
The wall is the element that enables this action, from which space is created.
Boundaries of rammed earth enclose the boundary of the site and run through it.
The intersection of these walls simultaneously generates the spaces of the house and four gardens, four different natures: the forest - wild space, the olive grove - existing nature, the orchard - artificial and controlled nature, and the Islamic garden - geometrically composed.
A black concrete structure floats on top, housing space for bedrooms and creating shade for gardens and ground-floor living.
