Peter Zumthor completes Devon countryside villa “in the tradition of Andrea Palladio”

Swiss architect Peter Zumthor has completed his Secular Retreat – a Living Architecture holiday home designed to celebrate the landscape like the villas of his hero, Andrea Palladio. The house, which has been more than 10 years in the making, is Zumthor’s first permanent building in the UK. It is located on a hilltop in South Devon, England, where it commands an impressive view of the surrounding countryside.

Zumthor designed the house to be built from concrete rammed by hand – a technique that gives stripes to the walls, both inside and out. The thickness of this material is revealed by the large, deep window openings, designed to take full advantage of the setting.

In 2002, world-renowned architect Peter Zumthor was commissioned by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration to design a tourist installation in Allmannajuvet, north of Sauda. The construction started in 2009, and seven years later, the art installation is completed.
