Gioveni House was conceived as a contemporary rural retreat, designed to offer a serene living environment in the Emilian countryside. The project is structured as a single monolithic volume, intersected by four exposed concrete walls that define spatial divisions while maintaining a seamless connection between interior and exterior.

Expansive sliding glass panels dissolve boundaries, extending the living areas into the landscape. Inside, the raw material palette, marked by the texture of concrete and the warmth of natural finishes, creates a balanced dialogue between solidity and openness, enhancing the perception of light and space. Timber sliding sunshades interact dynamically with daylight, subtly transforming the façade throughout the day.

In the garden, a young oak tree stands beside a heated stone tub, reinforcing the elemental connection between earth, water, and stone. This interplay of natural materials and architectural precision defines Gioveni House as a place of quiet retreat, where time moves at a slower pace.
