House C and House D by Studio AUTORI

House C and House D are designed for a wide range of cultural and creative activities. They occupy the positions of removed utility structures of the former rural household and are focused on the central area of the property standing in a strong correlation. In form, structure and material they invoke associations with the utility sheds of the contemporary local households which are essentially just parts of the courtyard covered by a steal canopy. In that sense, the interior of both houses is designed to evoke an impression of such a canopy rather than an enclosed interior space. This feature is further accentuated by the same materialization of the shell in the interior and on the façade.
