About Villa Attie 房子

阿蒂别墅嵌入土地地形,提供良好的通风、日光和舒适度。可从建筑物周围的两条道路进入该房屋。第一个通道通向房子的私人空间,如卧室,第二个通道通向半私人空间。开放空间规划体现了舒适性、安逸性、功能性和流通性的有效结合的理念。内部和泳池区的终点高度相同。因此,一旦窗户打开,您坐在客厅里就会产生一种在户外的感觉。

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.
