About Villa Troy 주택

빌라 트로이(Villa Troy)는 니코시아 광역권 외곽에 위치한 개인 주택이다. 내부 연면적은 340제곱미터이며, 4인 가족을 위한 보금자리로 사용된다. 생활 공간은 베란다와 정원 사이에 불규칙한 L자 형태로 배치되어 있다. 개방형 평면으로 구성된 1층에는 라운지, 거실, 식당이 자리하며, 이들 공간은 현관 홀의 2개 층 높이 보이드를 중심으로 전개된다. 전면 벽체의 석재 마감은 트로이의 성벽을 연상시키며, 다섯 개의 금속 브래킷은 고대의 창을 떠올리게 한다. 건물의 배치는 자연 환기와 자연 채광을 효과적으로 유도한다.

Unique Properties
Living spaces, arranged in an irregular L-shape, are placed amidst a cluster of outdoor areas, including verandas and a garden.

The open-plan ground level accommodates the lounge, the living and dining rooms. The double-height void at the vestibule becomes the core around which those three integrated parts of the house develop.
The building’s placement enhances natural ventilation and lighting, and large openings add to the connection between inside and out.
Dimensions & Packaging
The 340 square meters internal cover area, private house in the outskirts of greater Nicosia was designed to feature contemporary aesthetics, acquiring permanence with the use of timeless materials. Concurrently, the house caters to the needs of a family of four, facilitating communication and comfort.

Production Technology
The choice of stone cladding on a loadbearing wall on the façade, as well as on the enclosure at the back of the property, hints at the walls of Troy.

Metal, applied in many components, is another significant material from that time: the façade features five ornamental brackets whose angular form alludes to the trojan war spears. The original metal door and the vertical metal railings shape the home enclosure.
The open-plan ground level accommodates the lounge, the living and dining rooms. The double-height void at the vestibule becomes the core around which those three integrated parts of the house develop.

The fireplace, dominating the ground level, functions as divider at the limit between the vestibule, living room, and dining area. Its glass enclosure on three sides allows the hearth to be visible from all adjacent spaces.

The base of the fireplace is clad in ceramic tiles emulating fair-face concrete; this material also dresses the dining room wall, featuring the portrait paintings of Paris and Helen. The fair-face concrete ceramic pairs well with the floor tiling, emulating Calacatta marble. This material covers the entire ground floor of the house, assigning luxury and elegance.
