In a residential area of the Trois-Chêne district, 4 minimalist villas coexist in a garden of almost 1,500 m², which gives pride of place to open soil and numerous fruit trees. These contiguous villas are built in a staggered layout, with a staircase effect to limit overlooking and maximize sunlight from the west.
The building is of mixed construction, with reinforced concrete for the basement and ground floor, and timber for the walls and roof slab. Fluid lines and large bay windows give the villas a luminous elegance. Thanks to well-exploited volumes, each house with a gross floor area of 120 m² offers 5 rooms distributed over three levels.
The first floor features a kitchen opening onto a fully glazed living room, and is complemented by a 14 m² winter garden with retractable glass walls, as well as an office and adjoining shower room. Large bay windows give access to the outdoors from every room. Upstairs, 2 bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms and access to the balcony, including a large master bedroom. Completely excavated and lit by a patio skylight, the basement features a workshop as well as a large open space that can be converted into a playroom. A lift for 8 stacked cars completes the options on offer.
To cool off the summer heat, the roofs are planted with vegetation. Each villa is fitted with triple glazing and the exterior joinery frames are wood-metal. Equipped with individual heat pumps connected to geothermal probes and a photovoltaic array on the roof, the villas meet the Minergie-A standard and are energy self-sufficient. Finally, home automation has been fully integrated: blinds, lights and temperature are managed using an iPad, while an optional Oblo barometer enables energy optimization, even from a distance.
