About Olympea Domo
La Loĝvilao en la montoj de Libano estas integrita kun sia ĉirkaŭa naturo. Ĝia dezajno konsistas el 2 L-formaj strukturoj sur la teretaĝo, kiuj interagas kune por krei internan verdan korton, videblan de ĉiuj spacoj en la domo. Ĉi tiu koncepto estis pensita por eviti havi koridorojn en la domo, pro estetikaj kialoj same kiel por eviti perdon de spaco. Cedro estis plantita en la interna korto, ĝi estante la emblemo de la lando trovita sur la nacia flago, iĝante la koro de la domo.

- villa, luxury, housing, architecture, design
- Production Technology
- the house was covered in natural stone, low emission glass, mixed with black steel for the pergolas and fireplaces
- Design Challenge
- The hardest part was to execute the project with having minimum impact on the existing land
- Research
- The study started by merging two L-shaped structures to create an internal green patio, while having the basement floors embedded into the mountain in order to merge the building with its surroundings.
- Inspiration
- While i first visited the site, i was amazed by the beauty of the mountain, and i wanted the have the least intervention possible. This is when we decided to embed the structure into the mountain and keep the surroundings as is.
- Project Duration
- The project started in April 2016 and will finish in October 2018
- Operation Flow
- The building offers comfort through its generous interior space distribution, the luxurious views, and the high end quality of the materials used for the construction.The heated flooring and the low emission glass provide an efficient heating and cooling system that allows heat exchange between the ground and the rest of the space
