This house reminds me of a view from Lake Como when I was visiting there a few years back. But, the project I'm writing is not in Italy but in Scaiano, Switzerland. Markus Wespi Jérôme de Meuron have manipulated a house within a historical village to create a simple cube house using natural stones with a flat roof; something usually impossible to get planning permission from a historical site. To add further hardship, the site is only accessible by foot and there isn't a road as well. Internally, the Architects have created various levels connected by several small stairs. Windows and slanting walls have been left untouched to add character to the house.
