Private Residence - Reggio Emilia

“Archetipo Architettura” have designed this austere, modern residence. Capoferri engineered special steel hardware to support the external windows made from mahogany.

The verticality of the slats communicates with the geometries and the lines that characterize the pure minimalism of the villa. At the same time the movement of the sun-breaking panels creates a sense of permeability which contrast the impact of theA visible stone structure – a fascinating play with contrast and materials.
