The architecture of the building is a geometrized classicism in the spirit of the 1930s. Masonry of large concrete blocks, massive metal grilles, and laconic geometry instead of ornament. The façade conveys a masculine strength, yet the detailing carries a sense of refinement and femininity.
The unity of the house and garden plans is masterfully resolved. The home’s complex layout features clear spatial axes, carefully considered circulation, and natural light reaching almost every room despite the building’s imposing scale. Spaces follow one another gracefully, creating a sequence of varied impressions. The inner courtyard is a world in itself. On a relatively small plot, without losing scale or cohesion, a rich spectrum of spatial experiences has been arranged: a large lawn, flower beds, labyrinths, gazebos, a pavilion, a kitchen garden, and a corner of “wild forest.”
