It was here that the architect Le Corbusier developed his scale of proportions “the modulor”. Josep Lluís Sert who designed the famous development Punta Martinet and Erwin Broner built landmark buildings on Ibiza. Rolf Blakstad and Philippe Rotthier developed their unique formal vocabulary that was influenced by Ibizan architecture.THE LOCATIONThe site is located in the quiet and unspoilt north of the island not far from the city of St.Eulalia. It is situated remote from major roads in a pine forest typical for Ibiza. The grounds are completely developed, have good accessibility (the airport is 30 minutes away) and are only 5 minutes from the lovely beach of Aqua Blanca.THE ARCHITECTUREThe traditional Ibizan architectural style serves as a starting point for considerations of the design. For centuries this way of building has proven itself and has shaped the face of the island with its many, remotely scattered Fincas. To combine Ibizan tradition with contemporary architecture opens up a wide range of formal possibilities that result in a finely nuanced building with a strong character of its own. Also the materials used will allow the house to blend into its natural surroundings.THE PHILOSOPHYIntegral to the philosophy of the design is the versatility and flexibility of the house whose rooms are able to adjust to different living situations. Rooms that open up to the grounds, light wells, roofed and shielded exteriors allow intelligent passages from interiors to exteriors. The building is engaged in a dialogue with its surrounding environment: As a sculptural intervention into the landscape it assimilates impulses from the surroundings reacts with gestures of its own. The principles of simplicity and clarity extends naturally to a sustainable energy management and situates itself in a tradition that unites local action with global responsibility.Link:http://www.volkereschmannprojects.com Quote Não é incrível tudo o que pode caber dentro de um lápis?...
