In a beautiful wooded area in the middle of the village, gently sloping towards the stream, we didn't want to cut down any trees and alter as little of the natural soil as possible. By exploring the classic forms of cloister, courtyard housing and gable roof, we develop a general strategy of delicate insertion on the site. Favoring prefabrication to minimize impact on the site, the project displays two complementary techniques that each produce their own formal expression: platform-frame wood construction, and large infrastructural concrete beams.
