Long stone and plaster residence set into a terraced Mediterranean hillside.

The project is shaped around the existing rock and sloping terrain rather than treated as an isolated object. A workshop and service level occupies the ground floor, with two independent three-bedroom residences above.

Stone, plaster, terraces, olive trees and long views connect the building to the Ljubuški landscape. The long façade follows the slope, while dry-stone walls and terraces take up the changes in level.
