About Villa Attie गृहम्
भूसंरचनायां निविष्टम् अट्टी-उद्यानगृहं उत्कृष्टं वायुसंचारं, दिवाप्रकाशं, सुखं च प्रदाति। भवनं परितः स्थितयोः द्वयोः मार्गयोः प्रवेशसाध्यम्। प्रथमप्रवेशः शयनकक्षादिषु गृहस्य निजस्थानेषु नयति, द्वितीयप्रवेशः तु अर्धनिजस्थानेषु। मुक्तस्थानविन्यासः आरामस्य, सौख्यस्य, कार्यक्षमतायाः, संचारप्रवाहस्य च प्रभावीसमन्वयस्य भावनां मूर्तिमन्तं करोति। अन्तःस्थाने जलाशयक्षेत्रे च परिसमाप्तिस्तराः समानाः सन्ति। अतः गवाक्षेषु उद्घाटितेषु सत्सु निवासकक्षे उपविष्टस्य बहिः स्थितस्यैव अनुभूतिः जायते।

Behind the Design

- Unique Properties
- Embedded into the land topography, villa Attie offers a great ventilation, daylight and comfort. This design strategy created an accessibility to the house from two sides; the upper road and the road bellow. The first access leads to the private spaces of the house like the bedrooms, and the secondary access leads to the semi-private spaces; a huge open space consisting of two living rooms, a tv room, a kitchen and a dining area.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The building consists of two livable floors and a basement used for storage and technical purposes. Each floor has an area of 250 m2 which makes a total building area of 750 m2

- Production Technology
- In order to reduce running costs in the building, we opted for a double glazed aluminum facade with a low emissive glass. The outer shell is made of Fair face concrete kept at a natural state and borders are covered in HDCP, that stands for High Density Concrete Panels. A new generation of GRC that allows us to create continuous blocks longer than 3 meters without any joints.
- Design Challenge
- Since the plot is located between two roads and a corner, the challenge in the design of this building was to grant a double access to the house while respecting the city's rules and regulations.
- Research
- The footprint of the building, it's shape and selected materials were set according to a deep environmental analysis of the area. The building is oriented south-west for an optimal sun exposure and ventilation. The cladding materials were carefully selected to withstand an abrupt change in temperature. The use of two natural elements, fair face concrete and aluminum created a bold and successful combination of strict lines and shapes
- Inspiration
- Since the project is located on a rich-in-nature mountain, which is also part of a ski resort, our main objective was to grant a 180 degree view of the surroundings while respecting the natural slope of the land.
- Project Duration
- The project started in March 2021 and will be completed in November 2023 in Faqra, Lebanon.
- Operation Flow
- The open space plan embodied the idea of effective combination of comfort, coziness, functionality and flow of circulation.
