Architect Valbonesi designed this private residence near Chieti as a space where traditional and historic materials are perfectly integrated into the modern and contemporary style of the villa.

Capoferri has designed large, automated sliding Windows, which create a sense of permeability and transparency - a dialogue between the minimalism of the interiors and the nature surrounding it.

The external oak windows express austerity and rigour. Specifically designed and tailor- made, they feature special hardware that allows both swing and lift&slide operation, creating a monumental frontal that is both permeable and sealed in a play between verticality versus horizontality of the cladding.

The result is a residence elegant and evocative which at the same time instils strength and safeness.
