Design story

A warm contemporary estate imagined as a long, low composition of limestone, bronze and glass, organised around a private courtyard.

AUREL begins with restraint. Rather than height or ornament, the concept looks for presence in proportion: two broad horizontal levels, deep shadow lines and a single material language carried from the street to the garden.

Vein-cut limestone forms the calm mass of the house. Fluted bronze appears only where the hand meets the building — entry, screens and gate — so detail is discovered rather than announced.

Full-height glass is envisioned to open the principal rooms toward an inner courtyard, a tranquil pool and olive trees, letting daily life move between interior and garden without a clear threshold.

Intended material palette

  1. 01

    Vein-cut limestone

    Quiet, linear grain for the principal mass.

  2. 02

    Fluted bronze

    Reserved for entry, screens and touch points.

  3. 03

    Full-height glass

    Slender frames that keep views uninterrupted.

  4. 04

    Olive and gravel

    Silvery planting with a restrained, dry palette.

Conceptual highlights

  • Courtyard at the centre

    A private outdoor room the house is imagined to wrap around.

  • Horizontal calm

    Two broad levels with long eaves and deep shadow lines.

  • Indoor–outdoor flow

    Principal rooms envisioned to open fully toward pool and garden.

  • Detail by touch

    Bronze used sparingly where it is felt, not just seen.

Questions this design study raises

A concept does not answer whether it can be built on a particular lot. These are the questions to resolve first; they are not conclusions.

Buildability

Does the lot's width, slope and setbacks allow a long, low two-level plan around a courtyard, or would the courtyard shrink?

What to check about a lot →
Maintenance

How would limestone near a pool be sealed and cleaned, and how does fluted bronze age if left unlacquered?

What handover documents should cover →
Specification

Can full-height glass with slender frames meet the energy standards for the house as a whole?
