Ribbon House

Ribbon House is a residence with two adjoining units for a brother and sister, built on a tiny plot of 92 sqm located in a tight residential context close to the 16th-century royal mausoleum complex, the Qutb Shahi Tombs, in Hyderabad, India. The plot is at the top of a steeply-sloping lane, surrounded by neighboring houses with shared walls on three sides with a narrow lane in the front. This posed a challenge to the spatial layout, natural ventilation, and privacy of the house. The beauty of the site was an existing pair of neem trees towards the center, and views of the Tombs from a height.

La Mini

Architects Francesca Morsiani and Mujgan Merve Rinaldi designed La Mini with a proposed location in Nevsehir, Turkey surrounded by mountains. The rectangular structure is clad in dark brown vertical panels interspersed with floor-to-ceiling windows for a sleek, minimalist exterior. _UVISUAL The design idea was to create a small, efficient and welcoming house. In an area of about 45sqm, it contains minimum living requirements: a bedroom, bathroom and the living/dining/kitchen area as a single space. "The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.” Hans Hoffmann _UVISUAL Despite its limited square footage, the interior feels open with sight lines to the outdoors from most angles....

Forest DublDom

The «Kashtan» DublDom home, as it’s called, so impressed the audience that many started dreaming about their serene residence surrounded by the forest.  Eventhough nature offers you a peaceful environment, it also poses a challenge for your dwelling. While planning this elevated home, we considered how the trees will affect the property and home experience.  Our goal was to provide a home to harmonize with its surroundings. Caption Typically, our firm prefers one storey houses, but in this project, we decided to explore. We still believe that on small plots and for year-round living, a one-story house is more convenient.  When you're surrounded by a tall forest, this provides another solution for creat... More

Tiny House - Transportable

The project of our tiny house was born in a context in which the Habitat concept itself evolves and changes according to new needs but also to the needs that society is involuntarily forcing to impose for a more sustainable life away from the frenzy that is too insistent today and ephemeral. The concept of our project, which is based on its actual production, is conceived from a prefabricated corrugated sheet metal structure subsequently covered with a laminated structure in natural wood, treated so as to be able to resist atmospheric agents in any context, thanks also to our system of filtering of natural water which acts as a shield in case of excessive heat. The interiors are presented with the same philosophy applied to the outer casin... More
