plan 01

plan 02

On both, the front and the lake side, this sculptural villa shows very expressive and ornamental facades. Facing Mount Pilatus the white elements are dotted with circular openings that allow glimpses into the two-levelled orangery with its exotic plants, as well as the lounge, the guest tract and the staircase accessed through one of the openings at the ground floor.

The lake side with superb mountain views of the Rigi and the Bürgenstock shows off a protruding, glistering loggia made of round glass bricks. Very decorative, such elements are a strong contrast to the rough renderings of the side facades. The basement nestles along the slope and opens into a large fitness area with a 25 meter pool, half inside, half outside, which is inserted in a white Terrazzo plate. This Terrazzo plate extends gracefully from the pool bar located inside along the boathouse made of white tinted, rough jetted concrete into Lake Lucerne.

Collecting classic Ferraris? Nice one, yeah, very original….

Or maybe I’m just envious..

Still the cars deserve better than to be lined up in that parking garage…
Why is the Dino in front even on the plan? He has to take it in every time it rains……

IONIC says:

The O House is an interesting piece of modern architecture. Utilizing concrete into an expressive yet simple design.

The circular openings sets the building’s character and creates a boundary and at the same time a window into the structure. Intriguing and inviting.

I wonder what where Stuibi’s and Troger’s inspiration for the circular windows.?
