The Apex House
A bold residence overlooking Lake Como, defined by angular geometry and panoramic glazing. Priorities included maximizing views, achieving privacy despite openness, and crafting a striking architectural landmark.
Project Narrative
The Apex House was designed as a bold architectural landmark overlooking Lake Como. Its sharp angular geometry creates a striking silhouette, while expansive glass façades dissolve boundaries between interior luxury and exterior panoramas.
Design Intent
To deliver a residence that embodies power and elegance through strong geometric lines, paired with refined natural materials. The design sought to offer privacy without sacrificing openness to the landscape.
Build Challenges
1. Engineering the dramatic angular cantilever while maintaining structural integrity. 2. Integrating a seamless glass façade with concealed frames for unobstructed views. 3. Designing a balance between dark interior palettes and natural daylight.
