Maison Mouvaux
2015-2017
Mouvaux, France

The Mouvaux house is a family home. Nestled on the edge of wooded land, its subtle shapes and materials reflect the surrounding flora. Opening onto a clearing where it receives sunlight from the south, the house’s orientation is ideal, allowing it to benefit from natural light all day long. 
The parti pris to reveal and strengthen the presence of the roofing and to allow the ground floor to "disappear" under the overhanging roof, the reflections of the landscape in the "facets", the offsets embedded in the plan, all combine to support the notion of a “furtive” house. The plan bends itself so as to slide this large inhabited roof between the trees within a setting full of vegetation. The delicate play of light and the shifting atmospheres of the reflected surroundings  intensify further the experience of nature. A house that “slips into” nature.
