Honorable Mention – Architectural New Construction
(Pittsburgh Magazine: Home & Garden, Spring 2006)
Villa Vuoto was awarded in Pittsburgh Magazine’s annual home design competition. The judges were impressed by Matthew’s use of unique forms and contrasting tones – this whirling space uses circles instead of traditional squares and right angles, and vivid colors in place of safe whites and earth tones.
