The old oriental subterranean canalization system for the supplying of water, called Qanat, synthesises the concept of this Villa better than any other. As a matter of fact, the project developed from several essential points: a high degree of privacy towards the exterior, a marked hierarchical layout of the internal areas of the house, in accordance with local customs, and integration with the surrounding landscape. The Villa develops on four levels, of which two are hypogea. These latter two are designed for the family and the female sphere, whereas the upper levels are for the male sphere and to be used as reception areas for guests.
