MANDRAGORA, a family summer villa is located in Orahovac, municipality of Kotor, Montenegro.This architectural realization is an example of successful integration into the specific landscape of the Bay of Kotor, in the hinterland of a busy road on a plot that overcomes a significant height difference. The multi-functionality of the building is achieved through two floors with a total area of about 526m2 and through an active landscape of about 330m2. The two parts of the building are arranged in parallel, to enable the constant interaction of the users of the villa with the surroundings.
