Mono House CS4

Patio Studio Architecture

Mono House The winding patio fuses the internal and external areas of the home, blending them together without distinct separation. This creates an intimate connection to the surrounding landscape and elegantly expands the volume of the house. By generation complementary spaces that allow the interior/exterior link, the home is a marvel to arrive in.

A Monolithic Structure

About the concept The home is a monolithic structure enveloped by a concrete skin, orienting the visuals toward the 'inside" patios. The sturdy foundation of concrete, stone exterior, and wood interior seamlessly blend together for an introverted character.
