265        VILLA WITH PRIVATE LAKE

A contemporary reinterpretation of a rural farmhouse


The project involves the creation of a villa set in the Venetian countryside, overlooking a private lake that becomes a central element of both the landscape and the architectural composition. The building reinterprets the archetype of the rural farmhouse in a contemporary key, maintaining a strong connection to tradition while translating it into essential, linear, and sophisticated forms.

The plan is organized over two levels and oriented to maximize the relationship with the natural surroundings: large glass surfaces open the interior spaces towards the lake, establishing a constant visual dialogue with the water and surrounding vegetation, while enhancing the sense of space to appear virtually boundless.



The reinterpretation of the traditional Venetian agricultural shed finds a new expression in the garage dedicated to vintage cars: an autonomous yet integrated volume that complements the villa with a contemporary function linked to passion and private collection.

A distinctive architectural element is the portico, reimagined as a transitional space between interior and exterior. In addition to evoking rural tradition, it functions as a climatic and perceptive mediator, offering a sheltered, welcoming, and convivial area where everyday life seamlessly meets the natural landscape.
