The project is located in a small hamlet of the Alta Val Trebbia: Roncaiolo. The client owned an old house adjacent to their property, whose dilapidated condition led to the decision to completely demolish and rebuild it.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The new structure follows the footprint of the old building, which, leaning against the steep slope, also served as a retaining wall, thus mediating the height difference between the garden above and the road below. The new building consists of a reinforced concrete base that counters the uphill pressures, while the two upper floors, lighter in structure, are built with prefabricated wooden elements.Save this picture!The intention to establish a strong dialogue with the surrounding natural context influenced the volumetric composition, which is reflected in the design of the faades on the uphill and downhill sides, as well as the roof: uphill, a continuous slope; downhill, two independently sloped sections mirror the orientation of the lower volume.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Large windows on the first floor physically connect the living area to the uphill garden and visually to the valley below, framing the surrounding landscape of the Val Trebbia. On the second floor, the sleeping area consists of three bedrooms, each offering a unique view.Save this picture!A restrained color palette for both the exterior and interior creates a seamless integration with the surrounding natural environment.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessAbout this officeStudio Paolo PaganiOfficeMaterialConcreteMaterials and TagsPublished on March 04, 2025Cite: "Private House Val Trebbia / Studio Pietro Todeschini + Studio Paolo Pagani" 04 Mar 2025.
