House 3
Crete A-Heraklion
The idea for this project is that of
a farmhouse on a country estate. Organised and volumetrically
expressed as a wall with an attached kitchen tower, it defines
an external patio-veranda similar to that of the traditional
houses of Sfakia, in which the courtyard (alvi) mediates the
various internal spaces. This arrangement ensures a strong relationship
between interior and exterior, while the external living spaces
acquire an almost ceremonial significance because of the amount
of time the family spends outdoors. The house pays homage to
the same views as House 3. The form of the roof echoes the silhouette of the surrounding hills.
