2700 sq/m luxury residential family home.
The building sits with its back to the mountain and opens out to the terraces in front. Sections of the external walls slide away completely, extending living spaces out onto the generous terraces. A moat-like swimming pool surrounds an outdoor seating area and bar, covered by a roof that projects from the main building and folds down at the end to form a supporting wall. A glass elevator connects the skylit basement garage with the other levels in the house, and a concrete staircase sided with wooden panels travels up through the building.
