This is a village house between party walls, with an elongated floor plan and a narrow bay, which opens onto an orchard at the back. Abandonment and the passage of time had brought it to a dilapidated state, which poor-quality renovations had not been able to alleviate.

In addition to providing light and ventilation, the courtyard is understood as a place to be walked through and lived in. Surrounding it are four staggered floors at different levels. Each of them contains a single use; kitchen, living room, bedroom 1 and bedroom 2. The metal walkway surrounds the courtyard, allowing a double indoor-outdoor circulation and extending the programme of rooms into the courtyard.

The ground floor functions as a large open-air entrance that forces one to cross the courtyard before entering the summer lounge, which is designed to open onto both the courtyard and the orchard.
