House Sperone is a private home located in Novigrad, Croatia. The 4,768-square-foot home was designed by Studio Metrocubo in 2014.
According to the architects: “This award winning home harkens to traditional Colorado construction and materials such as stone and timber while offering an exquisitely contemporary experience – open, flowing, and full of light. As a larger structure, it was conscientiously made efficient and responsible, blending seamlessly with nature. It is a true celebration of this special Colorado place from which it finds its form, and an intriguing expression of the eclectic style of two Colorado natives. It is a marriage of traditional and contemporary sensibilities, anchored in nature.
Our Principal Architect David Barrett, FAIA, says, “This home exemplifies what I call Living Architecture, which is essentially learning from the living and natural systems with which we are seamlessly intertwined. The intent of living harmoniously is returned to the forefront of the art and the act of building.” In his 35-year practice of architecture, Mr. Barrett applies this philosophy to projects of all sizes.”
