The project is the winner of the Architecture Masterprize Honorable Mention in the category Residential Architecture – Single Family 2021.
A human-scaled one-story volume harmoniously fits into natural surroundings not only because of well-thought architectonics but thanks to panoramic windows which create an inseparable connection between interior and exterior; and rhythmic facade articulation balancing the verticals of the pines. To further emphasize the connection with nature, we used natural Karelian stone, folded in strips.
Furthermore, the house’s architecture is interesting by a created contrast between dichromatic volumes and alternating impermeable and permeable spaces and the changing rhythm of the façade by opening/closing blinds.
