The aim of the project is the creation of a new artifact intended to set a dialogue with the surrounding context, specifically with what the medoval walls of Cittadella represent both in terms of material and function, in particular that of the "protection" of its interior. This desire combined with the program established with the client led to the creation of a building characterized by two important walls covered with exposed brick to define the elements making up the conformation of the building. The choice of using brick as the main material is also underlined by the use of the same also inside the house as a distinctive element for both levels of the house along which the paths develop. Furthermore, the score of the opening is deliberately in assonance with the elements that characterize the surrounding walls of the historic city.
