Patio Houses and 12 Row Houses in Rome

This work is settled in two different plots, located in Rome, in a western suburb of the city. Some old and run-down buildings are going to be replaced with two new little residentials blocks.

The contest around is very peculiar: though it is inside the Ring Road and therefore close to the city centre, it is located in a rural area, with naturalistic landscape all around.

Five 95 sqm row houses are placed on the first plot, while five 70 sqm row houses and five 90 sqm patio houses are placed on the second.

Using independent typologies allowed the project to achieve an optimal direction: living and dining rooms are placed in the front, facing south-west, while bedrooms are placed on the back, facing north-east to optimize natural lighting and heating.
