Description
A house inscribed in the natural landscape of the surrounding garden. The existing old-growth forest influenced the shape of the chunk. Sliding, panoramic windows in the living area allow a strong penetration of nature into the interior of the house. Architecture derive from the tradition of prairie houses of Frank Lloyd Wright. Envelope roofs, front-end eaves, horizontal lines of windows and terraces consistently build the atmosphere of an elegant residence. Natural materials: stone, brick and tile emphasize its timeless character. Traditional language combines and permeates with modern detail. Using modern technologies ensures durability and comfort of use.
