They became the pivot points of the project.” say Giopato & Coombes. “The floor plan is distributed with a formal compactness towards the north, in terms of each distribution and elevation. This steadily disintegrates in the south facing location of the ground floor, while preserving compact the entire 1st floor. The architecture projects towards the garden on the south of the website.”</p><br/><img alt="private residence giopato coombes Private Residence By Giopato & Coombes (IT) architecture " height="368" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/private-residence-giopato-coombes___.jpg" title="Private Residence By Giopato & Coombes (IT) architecture " width="560" /><br/><p>Private Residence by Giopato & Coombes</p><br/><p>“The ‘walls’ are covered in bush-hammered Istrian Yellow marble to emphasize their appearance of solidity, whilst vibrating the light in order to soften the atmosphere. These walls are positioned around a central fireplace in a turbine formation and are connected by full-height windows. There is a long and narrow water basin that sit’s behind the fireplace, that stretches the point of view out towards the garden. Fire and water: heating and revitalization. But also a sort of optical device as the sky, the clouds and the passage of birds are reflected due to the black resin finish of the water basin.”</p><br/><img alt="private residence giopato coombes Private Residence By Giopato & Coombes (IT) architecture " height="851" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/private-residence-giopato-coombes____.jpg" title="Private Residence By Giopato & Coombes (IT) architecture " width="560" /><br/><p>Private Residence by Giopato & Coombes</p><br/><p>“The intention was the retain a continuous environment for the living area, but with private locations created by planes to block the view, for example among the entrance and the living region and the wall containing the fireplace in between the dining and living area. The kitchen is separated from the dining region with access by means of a complete-height dividing panel the closes onto a continuous glass pane, delivering visual continuity. So every region is linked visually, but nicely defined as a private space. Rather the north part of the residence is closed in on itself and includes the needed solutions, such as guest bathroom, and utility rooms.”</p><br/><p>to the Giopato & Coombes internet site</p><br/><p>view far more architecture on Architonic</p><br/><img alt="p Private Residence By Giopato & Coombes (IT) architecture " border="" height="1" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/p___________________________.gif" title="Private Residence By Giopato & Coombes (IT) architecture " width="1" />
