Siesta Twin Houses / Ibiza

Zuccherodesign Architects, in collaboration with the Dutch textile designer Antje Paul-Kessel from iDress, has created a pristine all

white scenario for these extremely colorful textiles played out in various

shapes and forms. The fundamental color palette is neutral and monochromatic.

Pops of color are introduced trough the soft furnishings of the sofa pillows and

curtains. The design and textile choices together bring an exciting statement of

sophistication to this ultra modern house in Ibiza.

Built on on two identical existing structures, these three-storey glass cube

Siesta Houses, were redesigned by the Ibiza based Zuccherodesign Architects who

took inspiration from the breathtaking sunset of Santa Eulalia bay.

In a small densely inhabited island such as Ibiza, it is a challenge to find a

hilltop location near the sea that is free from daily tourist activities. This
tranquil feeling of seclusion was the first design objective when positioning
the Siesta Houses. The second objective was to bring the feeling of the sea
inside the house metaphorically painting the walls with delicate colors to
reflect the sunlight.
Constructed with open concept interiors (kitchen, dining-room and living-room
plus master-suite, all in the main floor) and joining rectilinear forms that

seemed to float on a cliff, these spaces feature spectacular views from every

vantage point in their interior. A massive fire place is the only division in

this pristine space while maintaining perfect dialog with the futuristic-shaped

Moon System sofas designed by Zaha Hadid for B & B Italia.
A floor-to-ceiling glass wall expands the conceptual impact of the living-room
while offering direct access to the open-air terrace which features a

hanging-pool.

The house entrance is accomplished from a small private street approached from

behind and connected by a bridge, allowing total privacy to the inhabitants.

In the evening, the home's slat-style facade allows the interior light to

permeate and merge with the exterior lighting system, bathing the house in a
dramatic and glowing aura of its own.
Architect Zucchero has honored the unique style that is typically Ibizian . This
cosmopolitan approach to living in these exceptional spaces, presents an
opportunity to truly realize an open and free experience leading the way to
redefine the concept of the Mediterranean Maison.

Tree House Built in an Old Walnut Tree / California

2009-12-04T13:40:00.015+01:00

Through digital photographs and exchanges of videos, Mr. Zucchero was the long distance Consultant Architect of this intricate , complicated and playful structure. The process of building this fantasy tree house was a challenge with every, step, window, wall, and balcony meeting unique and unpredictable divisions of trunk and branches.

The structure was blended into the tree using unpainted wood and many old and found doors and windows collected over time from treasure hunts around the US.

The tree house features a dining room and a queen size bed. Electricity is available as well as running water.The wide entry steps accommodate the largest of adults, providing a grand entry approach to the first outside patio level where this is a bar area and alfresco dining. The large tree trunk inside serves as a room divider.

A balcony is just outside the window next to the large bed. where two limbs are available for squirrels and birds to perch and provide the sounds of nature to those inside. The walls are lined with cedar and are fully insulated against the mild chill of California winters.

This project is the centerpiece structure of “Villa Carlotta” and was completed in only two months time with the dedication and expertise of California Master Carpenter , Albert Gutierrez, who took dreams, drawings and the imagination of owner and architect , and with hammer, nails, sweat and laughter created this one of a kind tree house.
