On the east side of the capital, the upper side of the City Yerevan, surrounded with mixed types of houses – (new and old) is located one of the rare and unique houses of the region. With its simple and clean design, well thought construction methods, specious and breathtaking view to the whole city (and mount Ararat) it has become an island of a “game changer”.
The facade was built by natural local stone of white Travertine. It is rare to find this special type of travertine with very little holes in it. It has a special shiny, aesthetical and elegant look. The main construction has been adopted to local seismic norms. Reinforced concrete construction as a core of buildings construction.
The building form followed the land parameter and kept simple rectangular. The natural light, energy efficiency and local/natural materials were one of the most important aspects of the builder.
