Drive Through

Drive Through House in Made was designed around a unique request from the client: a residence that is both literally and visually accessible from the driveway. The result is a sculptural home where the car plays a central architectural role, seamlessly integrated into the spatial layout. Defined by strong horizontal lines, generous glass façades and an elevated volume, the design creates a contemporary living experience with an open connection to its surroundings.

MINIMALISM MEETS FUNCTIONAL FLOW

Drive Through House is a contemporary villa where mobility and architecture come together in a unique way. The residence is designed around a central axis of movement that literally cuts through the building. This not only creates a dynamic spatial layout, but also strengthens the connection between indoor and outdoor areas in surprising ways.

The sleek lines, horizontal composition, and use of concrete, natural stone, and black accents give the villa a bold, minimalist identity. Large glass façades flood the interior with daylight and offer constant views of the carefully landscaped surroundings.

Used materials

Only the
essential

The material palette of this villa is carefully composed to emphasize clarity, rhythm, and connection with the landscape. White and black stucco form a striking foundation, offering clean contrasts that highlight the geometric composition of the structure. Black vertical slats introduce texture and depth, creating subtle patterns of light and shadow throughout the day.

Polished concrete floors extend across interior and exterior spaces, reinforcing the continuity of the design. Large glass façades not only flood the interior with daylight but also offer uninterrupted views of the surrounding environment. Together, these materials create a refined, modern atmosphere where simplicity meets spatial richness.
