Our project proposes to maintain the trees, which meant not being able to touch the roots or dig, so we decided to FLY. Thus, we achieved a double objective, respecting the existing pine trees and getting a magnificent green 'garden' (without water cost) as are the tops of the pines. In order to maintain all the pine trees, the floor plan of the house is adapted to the gaps that they 'leave', so we find a house 'perforated' on the ground floor where the rooms fly, come together, separate... all in an organic way and fully integrated into the surrounding nature.
