Z16 residence
Private residences are well suited for the enjoyment of double-height areas. This architectural technique not only enables vertical areas to be linked, but it also increases the practical and aesthetic possibilities of a structure; often employed in living rooms and kitchens, these spaces are intended to foster interaction among people.
The Outcome
The garden's modest size enables people to appreciate the eastern vista, particularly around daybreak. Additionally, it frames the changing seasonal scenes, bringing nature inside the home.
Located in front of a busy street, the bulk of the stone wall serves as a barrier that shields the interior from the sound of passing automobiles, offering tranquility to the internal courtyard. This area is illuminated by the early light from the east and feels intimate in contrast to the busy thoroughfare to the west.
