Varese, Italy is where the latest home to catch our eye resides. Created in 2017, the 260 sq. m space was led by Mauro Rivolta from Studio Ecoarch. Situated on a sloping hillside, one of the aims was to make use of the sun and landscape, inserting large windows in order to make the space feel more open.

The base of the home is made using wooden X-LAM and natural materials, which is contrasted with a brilliant white exterior that is continued throughout the interior. Take a look at the gallery above to see the space for yourself.
