Maani Residence

Amman, Jordan

Recycled, rough old stone walls integrate this house into the surrounding landscape. Its spaces are layered horizontally and vertically by a 30-metre path that offers contrasts between solid and void, stone and glass. The path extends across the house, linking spaces and views all the way up to the rooftop, where there are views out over the city of Jerusalem.
