Can an architectural structure fit into the natural environment without overpowering it, but rather conform harmoniously to it? The answer is yes, and it takes tangible form in Villa Emerald, a project by the Building Group, designed by Boffa Petrone & Partners. Embedded like a gem on the moraine hills overlooking Lake Garda, Villa Emerald evokes the color of the waters in which it is reflected in its name, like in an evocative dialogue with the surrounding landscape. Fully respecting the landform, the villa maintains the sinuous profile of the hills visible in its framework, overlooking a large outdoor area with a swimming pool and solarium. Its unique “boomerang” shape and the glazed interior area offer a perfect view of the lake, while the outer profile of the building has no opening, except for the entrance door. This structure on the one hand reveals and on the other hides, enhancing the enchanting landscape of Lake Garda while ensuring greater protection of privacy where necessary. Villa Emerald establishes connections not only between nature and architecture, but also between architecture and art: great care has been taken in the choice of materials and finishes, as well as furnishing design elements. The resulting ensemble is always refined and never eccentric.
