Words from the architect

To give an appropriate place for the workers of the vineyards, where they could eat, rest, and get together for eventual party meetings. The idea was to design a small, fluid and clear space, with a lightweight floating shell, with horizontal openings to give natural light to the interior as well as to have the amazing landscape views. The exteriors areas was designed to give shelter form the suffocating summer days. It has a covered corridor next to garden with trees and vineyards.
