FG single family house
FG single family house is located in the southern part of Borgo Valsugana municipality, on a private slightly sunken ground. From this area one can enjoy a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains moreover the sun light is ideal, especially in spring and summer, thanks to the good position of the peaks and of the surrounding buildings. The access is from Giamaolle street, the street which leads to Artesella. The landform, the absence of fences, the good relationship with the neighbours, and the numerous shared spaces (garden, porch and large living area) make this place “an oasis” to socialize. The aim was to design a volume which gave a sense of hospitality and which would provide a view of the landscape.
The project’s goal has been reached thanks to a covered porch at the entrance which not only welcomes the guest and works as a shelter but also, together with the paved roof, helps to reduce the visual impact of the main front on the surrounding landscape.
The prefabricated wood house, is characterized by a rational layout of the interiors, large windows on the east, south and west sides, to benefit from daylight especially in winter and loggias working as shelter from the summer heat. On the gable roof solar and hot water panels are mounted with the same roof’s angle so they can’t be seen from below.
FG house shows its energy efficient disposition (energy class A+), respectful of natural resources, thanks to a wood cladding made of larch planks laid at an angle. This way the house stands out from the nearby buildings, it blends with he surrounding nature, that becomes part of the interior spaces thanks to the low-e windows in white lacquered larch wood with sunshades.
