We had the distinct pleasure to interview award winning designer about their original and creative design work. is an award-winning creative designer, that makes our world a better place with their original works.
("") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work . Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
: The main principle was to fit a design into a traditional environment. Therefore we took most characteristics of the neighbouring buildings as role model.
: With our design we always strive for a masterpiece in craftsmanship. In this case the whole structural element (basically the naked house) was castes in exposed concrete. All fixtures were pre-positioned.
: Media & Publications. We also like to publish it on our homepage.
: Mainly the design process takes two years. After that the construction process takes another two years.
: We considered the existing traditional buildings in this area, which are self-contained mountain farm houses.
: The design is singular. We will not re-do it. Every client will receive his own design.
: Our way of working. Our way of doing design. Developing our own style of architecture.
: We as Pedevilla Architects corporated with Arch. Caroline Willeit who helped us refine the design process.
: Main target was to take the farmer and the farm house and reorganise it in the modern age. Everything changes through that: sozial, ecological, eceonomical habits. Thats why the farm house turned into a modern residence and the stable turned into chalet, wich is up for rent.
: Basically the floor layout and the constructrion.
: Pliscia 13 is basically the adress of the house. Plaiscia is the name of the hamlet, which consits of a handful of buildings.
: pc & model.
: Tradition, Regionality, Modern Interpretation, Material Reduction.
: We mostly corporated with the cratsmen. But as on every other construction site with the specialised planners.
: We do a lot of rendering, 3d visualisation and modelling before the final design. So technology is indisplaceable.
: We did a lot of traditional & regional based research. Research on role models. Did case studies. The outcome is surely unique for this special location , but could in therm of background not be transported into urban areas.
: Biggest challenge was the moulding of the structural element, namely the naked house. All fixtures were inlay works and could not be changed afterwards.
: Because it is a unique design, which did win a lot of awards in the past years. It is very welcomed by the media and a very good publicity item. It is after all an italian design.
: We improved a lot in terms of construction and pre-planning knowledge.
: None at the moment.
