Project

The Project envisions an extraordinary residen­tial settlement that harmoniously merges with the natural landscape, offering a living expe­rience of unparalleled refinement. 

Nestled on a gentle hillside, the residences are arranged ac­cording to a hypogean architectural logic, where each home is seamlessly integrated into the ter­rain, following the natural contours of the land. This design approach takes inspiration from the terraced splendor of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, reimagining their timeless elegance in a modern, luxurious context. 

The retaining walls that define the terraces are conceived as architectural art pieces, their ge­ometric forms and bold lines reminiscent of a Kandinsky painting. These structural elemen­ts not only serve a functional purpose but also provide a visual rhythm to the overall composi­tion, creating a dialogue between architecture and art. The interplay of shapes, perspectives, and materials forms a composition that feels as dynamic and vibrant, bringing a unique artistic expression to the landscape.
