Initially conceived as a space for technical support, the property gradually became part of the neighborhood's daily routine over time. In this environment, the flow of people, social gatherings, and collective activities occur continuously.
When Sò Studio began the renovation process, the location already possessed a well-defined spatial identity, which was built up over the years of using the space.
The Casa JA was conceived by the project team and reflects the unique characteristics of its location in Southern Amã. This property enjoys a privileged view of one of the city's largest public parks, in addition to offering continuous panoramas.
The steep slope of the land, along with the oak trees that were kept around the lot, served as inspiration for the architectural concept. This concept focuses on creating a green platform arranged in terraces, integrating the landscape directly into the building's interior.
In addition to visually incorporating nature, the design also organically positions the primary living spaces within the terrain itself, respecting the existing topography and vegetation.
