When I first see the photos of this house, I couldn’t believe my eyes! This holiday home seems to go into the ocean! That’s because the Pole House sits on a slope, which is steep and falls quickly away from entrance walkway. This sudden drop of the landscape gives the home the appearance of being suspended in mid air, especially from the wrap around terrace. The home is positioned diagonally to the entry ramp, and the two sides exposed to the ramp are kept closed and private, while the two sides overlooking the ocean are covered in glazings. From inside the home, the social zones have a panoramic 200 degree view of the ocean beyond. The interior is minimalist and in dark shades, nothing distracts attention from the awesome views. Bravo, Franco Fiorentini of F2 Architecture!
