House e springs up towards the lake like a telescope overlooking the valley. An infinity pool leaps towards the lake joining the water of the lake and the water of the pool, merging boundaries between built environment and natural one. Despite its stark exterior house e seeks to dialogue with the local rock. Rough and finished concrete establish a relationship of assonance with the surrounding rocky landscape. House e looks like a monolith carved into rock. The wide windows reflect the surrounding landscape.
