Nature bears nothing but the truth.
Ticino modernism in the Onsernone Valley
Living in the moment
Living in Casa Walser means living in uncompromising architecture. Here, boundaries blur: between nature and concrete, between history and the present. The house asserts its right to exist solely through its form – without ornamentation, in honest dialogue with the landscape.
In 1986, my parents fulfilled a dream in Loco: to build their own house with Luigi Snozzi, one of the most important architects of the Ticino school. They had grown to love the quiet valley over the years. Now they were looking for an architect who shared their vision of radical clarity. Today, it is open to those who want to experience architecture rather than consume it.
