This residential development of 119 owner-occupied dwellings is located on the edge of a state-owned forest and is organised around a central open-space courtyard, conceived as a clearing-garden—a shared place for conviviality and collective uses.
The inner gardens of the block structure the distribution of “clustered house units” and the through-lobbies of three collective housing volumes, which are articulated in broad, stepped forms. From level R+3 upwards, the volumes are freely staggered, opening views above the intermediate housing units towards the forest landscape.
The project assembles a series of identifiable architectural entities unified by a shared principle: living within a park, alongside the forest. In this sense, the fragmentation of volumes prevents any monolithic perception of the block from the public realm, reinforcing its permeability and spatial diversity.
