Slight Slope Long House  in Targoviste, Bulgaria is a modern home envisioned by I/O Architects  as a massive horizontal block sinking into the ground. At a closer look you may notice that the slope of the terrain plays tricks on your perception of the volume. The slight dynamic of the architectural composition gives elegance to the volume.
?The long structure is facing the favorable sun orientation and the view in slight opposition of the slope. This way entering diagonally into the house the height of the spaces changes in relation to their grade of privacy.
