THE COURTYARD TYPE
The house presents a three courts organism. These courts have different functions and qualities.
The first one develops from the east front to the middle of the house. It is an elongated courtyard preceded by a porch that serves to accompany those accessing from the east front, from the street one, ie, into the hall of the residence. This court is so completely paved.
On the northern front it is instead displaced another court, always elongated, which develops between the building body of the chapel and the office den. So it is a quiet and secluded courtyard, which offers space for relax, contemplation and meditation. So a part is characterized by a paved path that develops on the long way connecting the rooms and placing side by side the inside passage. The other part is carpeted with a grass surface. On the front of the chapel is instead proposed a little pool which makes it more isolated the room for prayer.
The last court is however the main one, which is overlooked by all the living spaces of the house. It is located in a barycentric point and it is open to the west, and then to the landscape where it develop the wood and the lake. To the west side it is also hypothesized a swimming pool. On this front it is forwards placed the kitchen porch, in communication with the central courtyard.
The presence of the three courts makes enjoyable and rich the space of the house offering a good natural lighting and ventilation. The environment of the formal living room and the hall, located between the east and the west court, represents a break of shadow between the two open spaces. The fact that it is completely glazed ensures a complete and continuous perception of the space, from east to west, as well as from south to north, thanks to the presence of the two lodges.

SPACES' ORGANIZATION
The plant of the house entirely occupies the buildable lot, finding inside it both the indoor spaces, intended to accommodate the residence, both the outdoor ones. The type is in fact the courtyard-house one, with more than one courtyard. This allows to find an ongoing relationship between the closed space and the outside and diversify living situations following the most logical and natural necessity.
As indicated by the client, the house has two entrances: one on the east front, which is preceded, as well as by a porch, by a long court accompanying to the access and the heart of the house; the other on the northern front.
At the ground floor - as requested - are arranged the main rooms of the house: the bedrooms, services, common room (the family room and the formal living room), the office den, the dining room and the kitchen. In any way, each part is clear and distinct from the other.
When you access the first place you meet is the formal living room, which has a double height. The space is also well ventilated and lighted, overlooking the courtyard facing east, the one facing west and the two loggias on the south and north front (the last one is the access loggia).
The organization in fact respects that of the central systems (see, for example, the architectures of Palladio).
From the central space of the formal living room you can go to other rooms of the house. Near the north entrance is the office den with windows facing outward, to control who approaches the house, and the north court. Facing this narrow court, there is also the prayer room, settled on the north-east corner of the plant. The prayer room is getted through a long pass, between the two courts.
From the living room you can also go towards the area of the bedrooms for the family members, distributed by a passage that receives natural light and air by a courtyard and separated by this through the services zone (bathrooms and walk-in closet). Here are in fact two bathrooms: one for the children's bedrooms and for all, the other pertaining to the master bedroom.
On the west side are instead the spaces of the family room, the formal dining room, the kitchen and finally the guest room, in communication with a bathroom and the outside. In this way on the main court, of square proportion and fully glazed, overlook all the spaces of the living area. In the bottom of the courtyard stands a hypothetical pool. The kitchen instead communicates with a porch that offers an open but covered and shaded space for the dining.
Upstairs it is instead a guest room, a theater/game room, a terrace, as well as small lounges (lobbies) placed in front of the rooms and overlooking the double height and the terrace.
