The project's goal was to render and tile, thus completing the exterior finish of, a country house. In keeping with the site's rural context, the back of the house (west facing) features large glass windows to allow panoramic views of the Abruzzi mountains. The street side (east facing) is more closed and inwardly oriented. The north side, which is windowless, is instead defined by a large, stone chimney. The building materials are all natural: stone, slaked lime, wood and steel.
