Set at the back of the garden of an imposing villa built in the 1920s, Jupiter House has many facets. Each of its spaces – whether devoted to hospitality, retreat, leisure and/or work – is the bearer of an imagination that reconciles the desire for a change of scenery with the pleasure of being “local” in the city. The facades and garden have been designed to accommodate a diversity of plants and animals. Continue reading V+

The rear façade constitutes the main tool used for composing the spaces and was drawn like a piece of furniture, which interfaces between interior and exterior activities. Multiple functions of the house are grafted to this façade and enhance the feeling of proximity with the garden. Continue reading V+
