The Harvest – Bricks from scratch 2
October 2nd, 2008
We have previously posted here few drawings and images of our first project for a ‘built from scratch’ private house near Piacenza, Italy. The 140 sqm villa is going to be inserted in a 4 hectares hilly terrain partly occupied by our client’s vineyards. Everybody knows that the end of september is the right time for the harvest… and since we have started to work on site a couple of months ago, we thought this was a good time to publish a sequence of the way we have progressed in ‘filling our bucket’.
