The Olive House is a residential project completed by LOG-URBIS. Located in Pag, Croatia, this house is almost invisible from the sea. An appropriate setting within the local context, from the basic concept all the way to the details, is what makes this family house unique. The house was designed for everyday living of a married couple, with frequent visits from their adult children and friends. The concept of the project highlights the features of the location, such as the southern orientation of the terrain, sea vista, Mediterranean climate pleasant for outdoor living, traditional Pag stone construction, the tradition of using wood for window shades and ship decks, and the indigenous Dalmatian vegetation. The terraces of the Mediterranean garden built of the red parparot stone native to the island rise up to the street to over 19 meters above sea level, providing a beautiful sea vista overlooking all houses on the coast. This is where the story of the house begins. A simple ground-floor cuboid rising from the terrain or embedded in it?
