Cave di Cusa, an ancient quarry in Sicily, which provided stone for the construction of many magnificent temples in the nearby Greek city of Selinunte (bottom picture). The quarry was abandoned in 409BC when the city was conquered by the Carthaginians, leaving many unfinished monumental blocks behind.

House 1736

A house in the middle of the city.

The regulations allow the construction of a ground floor and two floors, with a considerable depth that perfectly meets the needs of the client’s program, but at the same time this very deep condition suggests that it could be a house with an interior area that is too dark and bad ventilated. The project begins with the challenge of qualifying the centre, prioritizing it and turning it into the best place in the house.

Converting the centre into a space much more connected with the outside, full of light and with the possibility of opening up and ventilating the whole house. A space in between that – although programmed and deeply architectural – lets in the natural intensity of the climate from the roof and divides the house in half, emptying it, making it more spacious and letting it breathe. A space that, due to its less domestic conditions of height, light and ventilation, manages to convey a feeling of being outside. The verticality of the central space and the zenith opening organize air and light. They make the invisible visible by sliding natural light to the bottom of the atrium while stimulating the speed of ventilation and the exit of hot air upwards to the exterior.
