House PF is an addition to an existing single-family home situated beneath the medieval castle of Pergine Valsugana (Trento). It boasts a magnificent view over the valley below. The architectural design concentrated on the structure, on energy savings, an uninterrupted flow between interior and exterior and the use of larch wood to tie the project to local rural traditions. A Vierendeel truss was used to achieve a 4-meter cantilever, and this drive to exceed the limits of technique and materials can also be found inside the home. The breakfast counter in the kitchen in CorianĀ® has an impressive 120 cm cantilever and contains an elegant infinity sink.
