The Lake Lugano House in Lugano, Switzerland, is modern home with minimalistic luxuries and made with environmental materials. Surrounded by trees and nature, and located in the slope of a hill, it gives a feeling of openness, transparency, and tranquility of being in the freedom of the outdoors and the green environment.
The Home is design by Architect Jacopo Mascheroni with JM Architecture, and their design team Paolo Basco, Rex Gapux, and Jasen Lara. In a built area of 350mq, the house overlooks in one side the mountains in a private zone, while the bedroom areas has the garden view overlooking the lake. The House is design as an environmental property with the use of geothermal energy, rain water collection system, roof gardens, and a low emittance glass insulated with argon gas to optimize the thermal efficiency, and the use of natural shading with the trees.
The house has an amazing and unique style of design, but it’s definitely not for everyone. The idea of walls being glasses could be considered as not a private home, even though you are sounded by trees and nature, and there is a white mural in the back that blocks viewers and makes the home private. It depended on what sense you see it, but definitely this house is a piece of art, with great uniqueness and style.
