Casa Roverella is a villa created to embrace nature. The house is located in Puglia, halfway between Ostuni and Cisternino, in the Valle d'Itria, an area that inspired the entire project.

Las 3 Marias enhances the character of a 1960s Spanish residence on the Mediterranean

This project by Bajet Giramé Architects aims to enhance, and exaggerate, the courtyard-house character of a summer residence from the sixties on the Mediterranean coast of Spain. From wide and sunny, to intimate and shady, the use of coves, topography, loggias and gardens offer a spatial continuum that blurs the lines between indoors and outdoors, providing a landscape of vitality and delight.  José Hevia The pre-existing wall enclosure in the garden, which distinguishes two areas of the surrounding patios, is echoed throughout the site. The result is a gregarious and playful matrix of exterior and interior rooms, each with varying dimensions, character, light and temperature – yet all interconnected... More
