Description:

The house is situated in a sloping moraine scene east of Munich on the edge of a town. South and west, the perspective opens to the scene through scattered homesteads, the town is arranged north-east of the property. We chose to make a semi-community zone, which is circumscribed by the house and garage. The greenhouse range is from one viewpoint avoided the road, then again it opens in the meantime towards the farmland toward the south and west. The house reacts similarly on this circumstance by orientating the 60m² expansive façade opening toward the south-west. You go into the house through a specialty in the façade, from which as of now falls the perspective through the house into the patio nursery and the private division.

The design on the ground floor creates around a focal square in which a boundary free washroom and building gear are housed.

Around 90 tons of CO2 have been pulled back over the long haul of the air and put away in the house in the roughly 90m³ assembled development timber alone. The material wood created in its generation no outflows, vitality utilization for the preparing of the building material is diminished to the vehicle, rather than the vitality concentrated generation of concrete or blocks.

The surfaces in the house emerge to a great extent from the still obvious wooden shell, which creates a warm and extremely human happy with living atmosphere. Just chose dividers and roofs were lined with plasterboard, to cover the electrical establishments. The floors all through the house are made of oak parquet industry supports. The material is outlined as a stainless steel standing crease material. Another configuration topic is availability for elderly and in this manner additionally manageability being used of the house at the age.
