Residential House for Filippo Caprioglio - Caprioglio Architects
Home PE3 is a residential house located in Cittadella, Padua, Italy. The design responds to the brick fortified walls of the historic medieval city. Two large walls clad in exposed brick define the form of the building and protect the interior toward the garden. A custom version of the MAAX brick was produced with a historic brick company and installed with a ventilation air gap, creating a breathing wall. The footprint is about 500 square meters, with a ground floor, a first floor and a basement for garage and cellar. The interior spaces are flexible and can change as the family grows.

The aim of the project is the creation of a new artifact intended to set a dialogue with the surrounding context, specifically with what the medieval walls of Cittadella represent both in terms of material and function, in particular that of the protection of its interior. This desire and the program established with the client led to the creation of a building characterized by two important walls covered with exposed brick to define the elements making up the conformation of the building.
Architecture, Context, Cittadella, Italy, Italian architecture, Interior design, Vertical Garden, Sustainability, Bricks
For this project, with the historic brick Company Terreal Italia SanMarco, we designed a custom version of the MAAX brick that is the main material used for this house. It was installed with the most advance cladding techniques leaving a ventilation air gap between the structure and the bricks to make a breathing wall.
The creative process for this project followed two well defined path that, at the end, converged in one unique result. The dialogue with the medieval walls of the historic city of Cittadella and the will of a sustainable green architecture.Those were the two main challenge that were developed in the research to accomplish the final result.
The project of Home PE3 from the design to the final realization took almost three years, from 2018 to 2020. The house is located in Cittadella, Padua in Italy
The house offers very flexible spaces that can vary in accordance to the need of the users through the time and the grow of the family members.
The research started by analyzing all he possible brick cladding technology and energy saving possibility throught the use of green materials. The goal was to obtain a great confort and and "easy" constructive system that will guarantee a rapid, clean and efficient construction method. We, with the Client, strongly believed in this sustainable approach and the results, now that house in inhabitant, are already evident in the energy and consumption saving.
The project was inspired by the context and in particular by the brick fortified walls of the historic medieval city of Cittadella, in Italy. The choice of using brick as the main material is underlined by the use of it also inside the house as a distinctive element for all the the levels of the building. Furthermore, the score of the openings on the brick facades are deliberately in assonance with the elements that characterize the surrounding walls of the historic city.
