Magnolia House is an alternative response to the common housing enclave. It seeks to understand it from the perspective of a series of spaces that are inhabited by a family, rather than from the perspective of an architectural element. Implanted in a suburban context full of nature and away from the urban environment, it’s a symbolic volumetric com...

This is what we design for. Uncompromising- dark means dark, with accent light. Luxury - expensive high-quality furniture and art objects in the interior. And clean- monolithic surfaces from and to. Plaster? The whole wall. Glass? The whole wall. Paint? One in the whole apartment. Style. When even cabinets became the subject of design.

The house proposes a way of living that starts from a continuous dialogue with the landscape in which it is located. An irregular terrain at the end of a closed street, merging in some portion, to the semicircle of the roundabout that completes the residential area where TOMM House stars with its powerful personality of right angles. It is a Volume...

Like a diamond, the shape of the building arises from the external pressure of legal constraints on a small plot of land. The facade gives character to the piece and functions as a brise-soleil. The restaurant under the pool is naturally cooled by the water that cascades over the facades.
