Terra Firma House / Luigi Rosselli Architects
From the Latin for ‘solid ground,’ terra firma was an expression used by mariners to describe their nostalgic yearning for land and a solid foothold. Life at sea is subject to vast ocean currents, shifting tides, and treacherous winds; returning to port, a safe harbor provides a contrasting feeling of stability and permanence.
