VILLA ARTIGIANO

BY NOA STUDIO · PLOT C2

The architect

NOA Studio is a multidisciplinary practice bridging Georgia and Portugal, led by architect Ketuna Kruashvili. Since 2005 it has worked across architecture, rehabilitation, historic preservation, urban design and interior design, from new buildings to sensitive refurbishments, residential and commercial. The studio blends local building traditions with inventive design and meticulous detail, and treats architecture as a scenario that unfolds over time: rhythm, direction and movement shape the space and engage the senses.

The villa

Nature sets the concept and becomes the core of both the interior and the exterior. The house is cut into the slope in two levels: an upper floor at the road under a deep concrete roof, and a bedroom floor below that opens onto the garden.

The terrace

The upper floor extends into a 210 m² terrace under a textured concrete roof. Its edge is a long, shallow pool that lines up with the horizon of the lake, and the living, dining and kitchen spaces open fully onto it through sliding glazing.

Two levels in the slope

The ground floor, at the road, holds the entrance lobby, parking, an office, the kitchen and pantry, and the living and dining room. The lower floor holds five bedrooms facing the garden, including two master suites with closets and bathrooms, and a service wing with storage, laundry and a technical room.

Concrete, bronze and stone

Hammered and smooth concrete give the two planes their weight and texture. Bronze window frames and vertical bronze fins add a warm, darker line to the glazing. Natural stone paves the terraces, warm timber lines the interiors, and grasses, lavender and perennials run through the garden.
