The synergy between the nature of a place and man’s hand is the quintessence of

creativity

Nice Paradise Residence is a perfect combination of art, luxury and architecture.

The realization of a trilogy of public, semi-public and private spaces, the study of

the land’s progress, the translation in architecture of natural language: these are the

foundations of this extraordinary project.

They have proved to be the winner of the first prize in a competition of ideas for

the redevelopment of the entire lot. The project, designed by Studio Mino Caggiula

Architects in Lugano, Switzerland, and promoted by Norbert Candinas Nocasa AG,

Chur, Switzerland, is currently in its

finishing phase of molding constructive lines to

the soft lines of the slope of Mount San Salvatore. A form pointing upwards and

follows the contours of the ground, while to soften the effect is a well-balanced

composition of horizontal levels that open up onto the beautiful surroundings.

From here you then face deep terraces and are free to explore all that the cardinal

points offer: the woods to the west, the Guidino Park to the east, the blue expansion

of Lake Lugano which

fills the horizon when looking south. Park, lake and city meet,

therefore, through a pedestrian path on the ground floor where multiple paths are

conveyed within the new building and the public, semi-public and private spaces

meet in one big sphere. The impact of something new that wants to conclude the

project: the result is a telescope that, nestled in the slope frames the landscape

and welcomes a SPA for the well-being of the tenants, outlining the visual path thus

created.
