a pure wooden cube, shaped by carving, becomes the central theme of the project. The new construction re-interprets the antique wood carving tradition of the gardena valley. Bending, carving and engraving, openings and color variations generate movement, making the volume look as a large wooden sculpture. the wooden shingle surface covers a triangle-based bearing structure. The triangle and bending system is underlined with the rainwater gutters. The Visual and emotional perception of this element is present both indoors and outdoors.
