THE THREE OLIVE TREES

TRADITIONAL VILLA

Summary

The ‘three olive trees’ project design borrows architectur­al elements from Venetian architecture combined with contemporary volumes and traditional materiality. The final result is fully integrated in the site, a characteristic that is enhanced both by the resi­dence’s configuration around the existing olive trees, as well as by the chosen colors palette, matching the silver green olive trees leaves, making the latter integral part of the design.
