BL single family house
The BL single family house is located in the northern part of the municipality of Pergine, Italy, on a mainly flat ground. From the area you can enjoy a beautiful view of the castle and the parish church of Pergine, of the Brenta mountain chain and other smaller mountains. The project involves the building renovation and expansion of a building of the 60s, to meet the needs of the new family. The father wanted to work at home, in order to reduce the expenses and to take care of the family. We got inspired by the history, in particular by the Italian workshops during the roman age (insula), and by the Middle Age house with shop. The house has three floors: the ground floor with the shop, the first floor in which the main apartment is located and the attic which is the space dedicated to relaxing. The volume is very compact, low and articulated. The loggias reduce the size and the impact of the fronts. An inspiration for the project was Fortunato Depero, a talented artist, painter, grafic designer, from Rovereto, a city nearby Trento. The client loved his brilliant, childish colors, expecially the contrast between red, black and white. Unfortunately the municipality didn't allow the use of three different colour for the same building. And so at the end of the construction work the building was painted white, a tint which is not used for any of the neighbouring buildings however the sum of the different colours of the surrounding buildings is exactly the white colour since it contains all the colours of the electromagnetic spectrum. On the roof of the veranda, solar panels are positioned according to the slope of the roof, to virtually ensure no visual impact. The vertical connecting element, the stairway, located in a barycentric position, allows to fully maximize the surface intended to housing. A glass stair leads to the attic. In this energy saving building the large openings in the south-east side allow to benefit from the winter sun, while the loggia protect from the summer overheating.
