The project is situated in Vuissens, a secluded village in the canton of Fribourg, which has managed to maintain its rural charm. The goal is to create a single-family house within a neighborhood of standard villas. However, such projects are becoming increasingly uncommon in Switzerland due to limited building plots and environmental concerns in land use planning.

La composition de trois volumes distincts se détache de l’orientation donnée par la pente naturelle du terrain pour s’orienter sur le paysage, l’ensoleillement et minimiser la vue sur les constructions voisines. Continue reading Deschenaux Architectes
