Serenity

Francesco Scandinavo / 2025

Perched on the quiet shore of a secluded lake, this living module creates a powerful dialogue between minimalist architecture and the untamed wild. Outside, the world is a subtle symphony of sounds—the gentle lapping of water against stilts, the calls of waterfowl echoing across the glassy surface, and the rustle of the dense forest behind. In contrast, the structure itself is a vessel of silence, a clean-lined sanctuary whose purpose is to distill the surrounding nature into a singular, peaceful experience. It is a place for profound solitude, where the stark quiet of a modern retreat amplifies the ever-present, gentle soundtrack of the lake.
