Settled in the coastline village of Cortaillod, Switzerland, the Villa Bolliger comes around the given urban restrictions by playing in and out with curves.

Yet at the entrance, flowing spaces will guide you through the whole house, streaming from a space to the other, from a framed view to the next.
The roof slightly sinks towards the lake, emphasizing the setting and driving the eye to the coastline.
Within the fluid layout, the spiral stairs appeals to the lower level, where the more private rooms line up. The bathrooms that are lighten up by skylights introduce to the more intimate spaces whilst the bedrooms enjoy the vicinity of the garden, close enough and set to caress and flirt with the greenery.
