Lugano · Seven residences on the lake

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.

01 — The project

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.

02 — Architecture

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.

Terraces up to 48 m², sheltered by the curved slabs: dinner outdoors from April to October, as the sun sets behind the mountains.

Every evening, the sun sets in the living room.
