House near Poznań

Working on this project was exciting, because we rarely have the opportunity to design buildings with a flat roof, due to the requirements of local plans. Here, the location allowed the use of modern forms, and this was also what our clients expected. With the investors, from the beginning we felt that we were on the same page, and we really liked the vision of the house they were talking about. TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI The plot of land on which we designed also had the advantage that it bordered directly with a forest, which, on the one hand, was a limitation, because we had to maintain the distance from the tree line specified in the plan, but we also knew that it was in this direction that we wanted to open the interiors, so that from al...

House in Zielona Góra

The starting point for the design of this house was to fit a shape on a plot with a rather difficult trapezoidal contour, with a not very beneficial location in relation to the sides of the world - the entrance to the plot is located on the south side. One of the instructions from our investors was their dream of having an outdoor swimming pool, which is to be bathed in sunlight for most of the day to naturally heat the water. It was no easy task to simultaneously provide the investors with privacy and comfort while relaxing on the terrace and by the pool. TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI The program called for a spacious living area on the first floor, with a kitchen separated with doors. A pantry, a walk-in closet, a two-c... En savoir plus

House in the Owl Mountains

Designing a house in the Owl Mountains was a big adventure for us. We ourselves have been lovers of mountain hiking and skiing for as long as we can remember, and it is the mountains that are our first thought when we think "vacation". That is why the issues of problems to be faced by the building and its user in a mountain climate were not foreign to us.  TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI Our job was to design a building that is primarily intended to become a place for weekend or holiday recreation for the whole family. The investors' children are themselves already adults starting their own families. The house was also to be designed in such a way that it could serve as a permanent home in the future, when the Investors decide it is time to e... En savoir plus

House in Wrocław

The house in Wroclaw was quite a challenge for us - a big limitation was the unusual, irregular shape of the plot, and the location of the entrance - the access to the building is located between existing buildings, so we had many obstacles when designing.  TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI   The plot itself is also not very large, and in the functional plan that investors assumed, in addition to standard living quarters for a family of 2+2, we also had to plan for a large, as much as 40-square-meter art studio room for one of the owners. In view of the investors' passion for art, we were not afraid to propose a more daring form - the terrace at the living area and the two-car carport h...

V HOUSE

We communicate with the client's family comparing visual references to be sure that we understand colors and characteristics the same way; we do notes, trying to catch live reactions and emotions; we summarize it  in accurate meanings and tables; we send it to our clients and give some time to think it over. And confirm everything again and again and only after that we start to design. Caption Creating a place for a family is a huge responsibility. In fact that means we plan a daily background that influences people. Caption Light has the main role in this project. It is reflected from the surfaces, fulfils, creates and models complicated and intense relationships between things.  Caption Light reveals the depth... En savoir plus

K HOUSE

Dynamic terrain and plot configuration set basic volumes of architecture: we can see two levels of uncluttered silhouette from the street and all four levels with stairs and terraces from the yard. Caption It was interesting to form a logic of interconnection between levels for a comfortable usage of each. Caption Thus, we have a gym and a hammam on the ground level as well as entrance to a swimming pool are. Caption On the second level there are common and kitchen areas, dining and living areas. Here we also have a large terrace with an awning and there’s a place with water. Caption On the third level we have master bedrooms and on the fourth there’s a master block with a private terrace.

TEN

Our clients came to us when the house walls were already built up and the partitions were about to be installed.The architecture project had rather conditional plan and we asked to stop construction before we designed our own solution.It turned out to be a perfect moment. We redesigned the space, created the conception and even suggested to change position of windows on the second floor: the implementation phaseallowed us to do that. We concentrated on improving all the solutions that were put into the architecture of this house. We stressed the axis, aligned all lines: one space flows into another and appears as its' logical continuation. Kitchen, dining and living areas are combined here, but they are on different levels.

Blue Mountains House

  A new off-grid house makes geometric allusions to the clients’ love of the abstract formal qualities of modernist houses by Myron Goldfinger and Charles Gwathmey. Based on a 4m x 3.8m structural grid, the design pin-wheels a series of private and public rooms around a central courtyard to provide a modest internal floor area of 100 sqm with a low environmental footprint of only 129 sqm on the site. Pop-up roof projections at each corner amplify the pin-wheel to offer expanded volumes and varying connections to tree canopies and sky views. Matthew Fonda Aside from requisite living, dining, kitchen, and bathroom spaces, it accommodates a dedicated office, a covered entry terrace for outdoor dining, 2 bedrooms with ensuite...

Villa Taganrog

L'histoire de ce projet a commencé lorsque le client, ayant vu certains de nos travaux, a décidé d'acheter simplement un projet tout fait, mais nous lui avons proposé de créer la maison de ses rêves. C'est ainsi que nous avons commencé à travailler ensemble sur le projet, et le résultat a été cette maison moderne. Fedorova Architects Fedorova Architects Le principal critère de son intemporalité et de son harmonie est que 7 ans après sa création, et tout au long du projet, ni moi ni le client n'avons jamais eu le moindre désir de changer un seul détail.                 ...

Sapphire 83

Sapphire 83 is a distinct example of a neighbourhood shopping complex that gives the user an opportunity to ‘shop while walking.’ The project is a combination of multiple amenities, including a Cinema hall run by INOX, 120 service apartments, almost 100 retail outlets and numerous family restaurants. As sustainability concerns are taking predominance and the need for safer public spaces is rising, our approach towards commercial spaces needs to provide a relevant solution. One of the unique models to explore is reflected in Sapphire's design language, straying away from the conventional malls and instead exploring the open-haat typology, thus promoting a sustainable design – access to multiple retail stores and safe open s...

The Kumbalangi Stories

Set against the enticing Kannamally backwaters in Kumbalangi, within the sprawling 89 cents of land, the beautiful residence is a picture painted right out of a dreamscape. Cocooned by the surrounding landscape, the majestic azure skies, and calm waters along the horizon against the verdant hues, the house is delicately designed to dematerialize into its backdrop. Spanning over 8200 square feet, home to a Dubai based banker, the house is designed to serve as a family holiday retreat in summers and a homestay all-round the year. Justin Sebastian Photography Context and Zoning Situated in a scattered residential setting, amidst the tropical greenery, abutted by an extensive water body on the west, the site is occupied mostly by tropica...

National House

National House is a new modestly sized two-storey skinny house for a young family of four. The design makes geometric and elemental references to the neighbouring development of its immediate context while also alluding to the formal qualities of various compact housing types in Japanese, Dutch and Belgian inner urban neighbourhoods. A second two-storey structure at the rear of the site provides a garage and a flexible artist’s studio on the upper level which outwardly reflects the predominant design language of the house.   The house accommodates ground floor wet area facilities with kitchen, dining and living areas directly connected to a rear landscaped garden, while a front room can be flexibly used as an office, guest bedr...

Morningside Residence

Le briefing de Morningside était direct : créer un foyer privé, comme une station balnéaire, pour un couple de professionnels. Deux formulaires simples reposent sans effort sur une fondation en béton, sur un site escarpé et étroit. Ces formes sont en contradiction avec un intérieur ouvert qui contient une grande quantité d'espace public divertissant et un espace privé intime, centré autour d'une terrasse de piscine privée. La structure joue un rôle clé, car la maison exprime la façon dont elle a été construite, et les matériaux ont été choisis pour leur durabilité et leur tactilité. Nous no... En savoir plus

PLOUR VILLA

Le premier point de confrontation du projet est l'atmosphère incroyable et très belle du site. La région est entourée d'un magnifique paysage de montagnes Damavand, de vallées, de rivières et de vastes pâturages. Le site du projet s'étend le long d'une pente assez raide et du point où l'accès aux étages inférieurs est difficile et où l'étage supérieur est le plus grand et le plus accessible, il a été envisagé pour la construction de la villa. Auparavant, les murs autour du site et une pergola métallique ont été construits dans la deuxième étape qui a été conservé... En savoir plus
