Hi! First upload here for me. First upload for me at all, to be honest.
Hope you'll like what i consider to be a nice modern house!



---Project ACTIVE---

ACTIVE is a serie of TS3 houses concepted for the elegant, successful and eccentric single who enjoys the pleasures of life and haves plenty of moneys to follow his top-class lifestyle whit ease.

ACTIVE project pursues also another goal, aside the one indicated above: as the name of the serie should suggest, all parts of the series will be highly customizable, although preserving an elegant and rational style and being enjoyable "as they comes"; they will evolve whit comparision of EP's and custom contents, and there's also the probability to see different version built on the same shell of the same house.


---EXTer---


Èstro ['ɛstro]: (it.) unexpected and original caprice / fillip, artistic inspiration.


EXTer is a brigth, elegant, neat bachelor pad inspired by Le Corbusier intuitions and designs, and built from scratch in a span of three days. As you can see, the aesthetic result is quite far from the Swiss architect's designs, but the main concept of the Modern Architeture style is preserved: EXTer is, in fact, developed around his target user, and it frees hereself from the architectural boundaries of bricks or stone-made structures to embrace the liberty that modern building materials such as steel and ferroconcrete makes.

Designed to fit the high-in-moneys, short-in-time top manager or the lone, successfull musical talent and to embrace him in a chilled atmpsphere that fits nice whit Sunset Valley, EXTer is still enjoyable wherever you'll place her and whoever will be her resident.




The exterior design is characterized by neat lines, an element that will by preserved in all of the ACTIVE project's installments; this main feature is enfatized by the use of far-from-smooth-looking materials such as industrio bricks and eco-wood axles that seems to be following the lineart main direction. The windows open on the sides, leaving the facade untouched.




The backyard is enclosed by privacy walls which also contribute, thanks to their placement, to the angulate look of the house. The floors are covered by flint tiles and idro-repellent wood which makes the exteriors confortable and durable at the same time. An unusual bend of the perimetral house's wall protects from wind the BBQ you'll surely want to place there.




The interiors goes far from the exterior design intent: the tones of white used in the walls and the lightwood floors gives a smooth, chilled ambient; the of colour are given by delicate pastel stains which are bright whitout aggressing the sight. The little space avaiable is used as best as possible: the condensed kitchen will accomodate even the most demanding maître chef; the round table is perfect for both formal and informal dinners, and illuminated by a fine hand-made chandelier that hangs two stories above.




The bedroom/studio is less aseptic: the white dyes of the underlying living area are matched whit luscious dark damask fabrics and dark-coloured hardwoods, which contributes to create a warmer and more culled ambient. The panoramic window allows you to enjoy a wonderfull view of the panorama that wraps around the house. The br-only accessible bathroom is provided of both shower and tub, and comes whit every confort you would ever ask for.
