Kollektiv Marudo

Description

The narrow plot, with a long property line stretching between the road and the lake, has a wonderful view of Lago Maggiore and the Brissago Islands. The existing building consisted of an ensemble of a main house and an old Ticino rustico. The basic idea from 1941 of an enfilade of rooms was maintained and strengthened. By adding a new bedroom and making adjustments to the existing floor plan, contemporary living is made possible without changing the traditional look of the house towards the lake. The rustico was renovated and converted into a tiny guest house by adding a minimal concrete extension. A filigree lift tower connects the new parking deck with the property.
