The lake,from first lightto the last.
Soft architecture, wood and stone, terraces suspended above the water. A residence for the few, designed for those who love silence and open views.
Discover
Residenza Vela rises on a slope overlooking the lake. The curved lines of its terraces recall the profile of a sail filled with wind: a building that does not dominate the landscape, but accompanies it. Just seven residences, each with its own horizon of water.
Light curves,
honest materials.
Slender slabs with rounded edges, wooden louvres that filter the light, full-height glazing. The building opens south towards the lake and stays discreet towards the street.
On the ground floor, private gardens with olive trees and hydrangeas; on the upper floors, deep terraces like open-air rooms.

The lake as
another room.

Every evening, the sun sets in the living room.
