01 MATTEO THUN ARCHITECTURE. Matteo Thun was born in 1952 in Bolzano, Italy. He studied at the Salzburg Academy under Oskar Kokoschka and completed his architectural studies in 1975, together with Adolfo Natalini, in Florence. In 1978 he moved to Milan, where he met Ettore Sottsass and worked with him. In 1981 he co-founded the Memphis Group, which significantly shaped the design movement of the eighties. In the following year he was awarded a professorship at the Vienna Academy of product design and ceramics. After he left the Memphis Group, he founded the Studio Matteo Thun in Milan in 1984 and was creative director at Swatch from 1990 to 1993. Matteo Thun won the ADI Compasso d Oro Award for design excellence three times. In 2001 the Side Hotel Hamburg, which was designed by him, was elected Hotel of the Year, the Vigilus Mountain Resort won the Wallpaper Design Award 2004 and the Radisson SAS Frankfurt was awarded the Worldwide Hospitality Award for best reopened hotel in 2005. Since December 2004, Matteo Thun has been a member of the Interior Hall of Fame in New York and a member of RIBA, the Royal Association of British Architects. Lake Garda is a childhood dream: Lemons, olives, white limestone - the lake is almost a sea! Villa Eden Gardone in its private park is one of the most beautiful locations, here. Matteo Thun

04 VILLA.MATTEO THUN DISCRETE INTEGRATION IN THE ENVIRONMENT The villa is located on the upper part of the exclusive complex, Villa Gardone Eden and offers a stunning view of the panorama of the lake. The breathtaking scenery of the place, the calm, the Mediterranean vegetation and year-round mild climate makes it a unique oasis in an excellent location. Discreetly and elegantly the Villa is integrated with 500 square metres in the fascinating landscape of the area and it can hardly be seen due to its flat design. Generous glass fronts create a visual bridge to the lake and open onto the spacious terrace with the infinity pool, which rises above Lake Garda. The light transparency of the architecture of the villa allows for a direct dialogue between interior and exterior. INTERIOR DESIGN WITH HIGH STANDARDS The main entrance of the villa is an exterior stone staircase. All floors of the villa can be reached by lift and also connected by a central staircase. The villa has two above ground and an underground floor designed in such a way that all the attributes of comfortable living can be optimally placed. The trapezoidal living area on the upper floor opens onto both sides by floor through floorto-ceiling windows: In the front part, the view wanders to the beautiful panorama in the rear part in the olive grove. This room forms the centre from which you can reach the kitchen, next to the pantry, laterally and also experienced direct access to the family room. There is also space here for a cloakroom and a bathroom. The master bedroom and two guest rooms will be in the upper floor and are fitted with private bathroom, naturally ventilated and exposed. The lower floors are connected by a discreet staircase to the kitchen and provide easy access to storage and equipment rooms. The spacious rooms, wellness and gym area and a private wine cellar meet the highest standards of proportion and equipment, while the separate service apartment, the glass-enclosed elevator, and parking with three parking spaces guarantee maximum functionality. The villa is directed towards the north-south and opens mainly to the east and west. Thanks to the cut and the volume the building seems to almost fly. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROJECT AT ANY STAGE The rather long and narrow body of the building fits in perfectly with Mediterranean terraces of the village and depends on the helio metric axis. The height was reduced to two storeys above ground to achieve a fusion of the proportions and to respect the landscape. NATURAL MATERIALS The leitmotif in every phase of the project is the sustainable development that accompanies Matteo Thun in all his projects: Both the analysis and understanding of the micro-climatic conditions, the optimal orientation and shape of the building, in the selection of local materials, the use of simple and reliable systems with low environmental impact yet highly effective work, and in the application of supervisory and regulatory systems has always followed the maxim of genius loci, the recognition of the soul of the place. Following the philosophy of the Triple Zero (0 km, 0 C02, 0 waste), only local materials were used: Stone, plaster, glass and wood. The Villa Matteo Thun is connected to the provided road network in the master plan, which in turn is connected to the major transport network.

On the waves twinkle a thousand floating stars; Soft mists envelop the distant heights; The morning wind fills the shadowy bay, And the lake reflects the ripening fruit. J. W. Goethe 07 IMPRESSIONS
