Designer's statement

The building is located near the Sile river just out of the historical walls of Treviso, Veneto region, Italy. It is like an historical Villa inside its garden: the white color is the way to make a good contrast with the gardens around. A big and long white volume with black parts going outside and grey parts sunken inside. This townhouse is composed by 9 apartments on three different levels. The architecture is clearly rationalist and wants to make a dialogue with the ‘900 Italian architecture. From every apartment and from the common parts you ever see the riverside giving the feeling to be part of this land.
