The Design

About Ortho Residenti

The exterior is defined by two massive, offset concrete volumes with a board-formed finish. On the main level, a small courtyard and a large garden terrace on the south side serve as intermediary zones where the residents can enjoy the distinctive outdoor environment of a ranch-style home while maintaining privacy. The clients purchased the tiered, irregularly shaped lot as a place to spend meaningful time as a family.
