Ramp Studio‘s latest masterpiece, the Terrace House, stands tall in Imperia, Italy, showcasing a contemporary design that seamlessly blends with the region’s strict seismic regulations and cultural heritage constraints.

This exceptional residence boasts an array of sustainable features, including a wooden CLT panel structure, a 100% electricity-powered operation with 50% derived from PV panels, and a water-efficient landscape with native plant species and rainwater harvesting for irrigation. The Terrace House has achieved the highest energy performance rating (A4) in the Italian system, making it a shining example of eco-conscious architecture.
