Casa BR stands in a large park surrounded by trees, in a village nestled among the vineyards of the Veneto countryside.

The project takes inspiration from the principles of modern architecture, which quattropiùlab shares: thinking and designing spaces according to their functionality, practicality and efficiency, creating a direct relationship between building and purpose, through the use of simple and clean lines.

Solar orientation and relationship between indoors and outdoors are the characteristics that played a key role in the design of the house: made evident by the use of large windows (made of aluminum from the Isos and Xtravision collection) framing the garden and creating a feeling of continuum between the living and the outdoors.

The building has an L-shaped plan, with well-defined shapes and hierarchies, made by three independent volumes: a two-level one with asymmetrical pitched roofing; a one-level one extending laterally from the first, with flat roofing; and the last one occupied by the garage.

The interior spaces are open but not immediately perceived, articulated through solids and voids that create the different rooms. The kitchen is linked to the dining room, but in a separate space. Likewise, the living room is inside the open space, but hidden behind the accessory of the house, so as to ensure privacy.

The materials used are highlighted with the characteristics proper to their nature, relating to the construction system: wood, metal and concrete are used both internally and externally to create a common architectural language. Inside, the cool-toned Venetian floor contrasts with the larch ceiling, that provides visual and perceptual warmth to the room. Externally similarly, the wooden cladding contrasts with the plaster and the aluminum window frames (from the Aluxima collection). This proportion between the elements and their intrinsict characteristics is the balance that ensures the harmonious outcome of the structure.
