Designed to echo the
sublime pleasures of the Tuscan countryside, the Heimann
residence nestles into its steeply sloping site evoking
the gregarious hill towns of the Italian heartland.
Rather than appearing as a monolithic block, the
individual spaces of this entertainment savvy home
reveal themselves on the exterior as individual building
masses. The major spaces are all able to spill out to
beautiful terraces and patios, extending the living area
and further featuring the expansive city and mountain
views encircling the site.
The stone and stucco exteriors blend with the
surrounding rolling grassland and oaken foothills.
Generous areas of glazing punctuate the masonry masses
and are detailed with stone lintels and sills. Wood and
wrought iron accents further enhance the feeling of the
Italian countryside; the roof rendered in boosted clay
tile recalling the villas and farmhouses of faraway.
