Swiss House Rossa is an architecture that needs art to complete it. The powerful force of nature here expresses itself, revealing to us our measure in the world. The urban simplicity of the place is a complex interlace of balance between people and the stones used to build their home. Swiss House reinterprets the archetype of the house. Just two vertical lines, two diagonal lines for the roof, holes for letting light. This is the same thing, but completely different. It is the archetype re-invented to show that the reasons for building are inexhaustible and that buildings are our public art.
