They Said for us

"The main element of this unique "cave" (ed. for “Ncaved House”) was the large, framed view of the sea to the east and the interior atriums to the west, unifying all the interiors with the landscape. ALUMIL's minimal aluminium systems helped us to achieve exactly this purpose. We used the SUPREME S650 sliding system of the PHOS series, and this choice proved to be a justified one, offering functionality and sophisticated design."

"The boundary between interior and exterior is lost, and the space beneath the single slab of concrete feels unified” (he talks about the “Lap Pool House” project). “This design intent was completed by the use of ALUMIL's special system that opened up the space. This angular opening highlights the abstract design of the building and emphasizes the unification of the relationship between the inside and the outside and the view to the horizon."

Urban Soul Project

"With ALUMIL, we have an excellent collaboration on some of our most challenging projects. The high quality and the ability to produce special frame constructions are unique characteristics of ALUMIL. Especially for “Zeus is Loose” the issue of the frames was critical due to their size (in fact, the whole facade was opened up, the infill walls were removed, and only the structural frame remained)."

Secret Garden House

Challenge

This modern summer house was going to be constructed on the southwest part of Paros, a beautiful Cycladic Island. The highest priority during the architectural plan was for the residence to be incorporated in the external environment. The main goal was the creation of a house that would be integrated into nature and not in contradiction with it. 

Solution

The boundaries of the plot are defined by an olive grove and some pine trees. Secret Garden House impresses with its smart and simple design. The architects of Scapearchitecture office emphasized the value of the building’s incorporation in the nature. Thus, when someone looks at Secret Garden House, it is easy to realize that it is submerged into the slope, creating a contemporary cave.  

The garden follows the colors of the natural landscape - without excesses- and a gravel pathway guides us through the low plants to the residence. Almost half of the house is integrated into the hillside, whereas the part that is not below the slope is covered by the rectangular shading pergola. Also, the wide-span glass panels, with the minimal sliding aluminium systems, attract the attention of the visitor and follow the philosophy of simplicity and comfort. 

Internally, the residence gives a sense of harmony. Secret Garden House, submerged in the slope, constitutes a sheltered retreat for the people that live inside. The kitchen, the dining-room and the living-room areas coexist in a unified space, while the wooden surfaces provide warmth and highlight the aesthetics of the interior. The 3 bedrooms of the house follow the same designing direction and offer relaxed moments to the residents. The magnificent wide window spans allow the unobstructed view and reinforce the natural lighting. In addition, the sliding of the frames into the wall emphasize the minimal elements and provide exceptional ventilation.  

Secret Garden House is a project that underlines the value of inclusion of the natural environment in the contemporary constructions. The combination of high-quality materials, the sustainable design and Cycladic scenery, offers a result of unparalleled aesthetics, elevating the whole living experience.
