Program Individual House Location Gers (Francia) Client Private Project authors S. Barclay - J.P. Crousse Project size 178 m2 Year of completion 2005 Concept The site is located at the summit of one of the first hills of the Gers region (Southwest of France), with magnificent views of the northern and northeastern landscape. The presence of a pond and an adobe ruin characterize the site, define its limits to the south and south-west, and orient it towards distant views. The project considers these characteristics in order to emphasize the landscape and its views. This project creates its own universe yet is grounded in, and the different elements are linked through spaces that have been carefully studied in order to relate to the surrounding landscape.
