In the idyllic village of Campill, a hamlet of the municipality of San Martino in Badia, in the heart of the South Tyrolean Dolomites, a new residential development is taking shape that harmoniously combines tradition and modernity. Built on a sloping site, these private homes offer breathtaking views of the majestic surrounding peaks, celebrating the inseparable bond between people and nature.

From an urban planning perspective, the project draws inspiration from the traditional Paarhof, a typical mountain farmstead layout characteristic of the Alpine region. This model places the dwelling and agricultural buildings in close proximity, with gabled roofs oriented toward the valley. Because of the hillside location, the houses appear to be only two storeys when viewed from the valley side, while cellars and a shared garage have been ingeniously integrated underground.

The upper floors, separated and topped with south-facing gabled roofs, evoke the authentic character of the local farmhouse. The ground floor, clad in natural stone, and the two upper floors in wood reflect the region’s traditional architecture, while the clean, angular design offers a modern reinterpretation of Alpine style.

The project is not only about aesthetics, but also about sustainability: the homes meet the rigorous CasaClima A Nature standards, ensuring top-level energy efficiency and the use of local building materials. This approach highlights a strong commitment to exemplary sustainability, perfectly integrating the new complex into the natural and cultural environment of the Dolomites.

These homes represent a perfect blend of past and future, a tribute to South Tyrol’s architectural tradition and a testament to how it is possible to live in harmony with the landscape without giving up innovation.
