The property, which is situated on the Rolle hills, has a wonderful view of Lake Geneva and the mountains towards the south.
The house is designed around the kitchen and dining area. In addition to the kitchen window, two large windows offer different views from the dining table. These two windows, which constitute the southern façade of the house, reflect two levels with a difference in height analogous to the sloping terrain.
While the upper level of the house is dedicated to cooking and dining, the lower level accommodates the bedrooms and family living room. The three roof sections cover all areas and generous eaves protect the two terraces stretching the length of the windows. The external joinery and façade panels consist of dark brown anodised aluminium.
