Villa San Valentino designed by Architekt Stephen Unger, Planning of a bi-familiar house on a high architectonic level for the cohabitation of 3 generations with common spaces.
Idea
To create a monolithic house with common spaces, under whose roof two independent habitation units are unified.
Orientation
Considering the orientation of the views.
The east-wing is looking towards Valle d’adige and the west-wing Val Venosta.
The form answers to the characteristics of local mountains and its three-dimensional facade to the path of the sun. The windows and the shadings are positioned such way, that the energy balance is optimized and the panorama is introduced in picture frames.
