Two Houses Grazing in the Meadow…

The vast area, the open landscape, the agricultural context, the people. All of these inspired the initial concept of organic bodies “grazing” in the field.

Accordingly, we “folded” the envelope of the houses and softened their corners so that they would move peacefully and calmly in the space.

The initial concept matured into plans and then into a built project, with two wonderful families living there happily.

The two families share a pool and additional functions, but each house has a private indoor-outdoor patio.

The two houses are hidden from the street and are located relatively low compared to it. Both are spread over a single floor and do not utilize all the building rights, so preparation for a future gallery was planned.

And then… on the day of the photo shoot, a flock of sheep unexpectedly passed by the property. It closed the circle for us and told the whole story…
