Set within the rural landscape of Bavaria, this private house designed by FerrantiSchnell Architekten (completed 2023, 370 sqm) offers a contemporary reinterpretation of traditional Bavarian architecture. The project navigates strict local building regulations through a clear architectural language rooted in proportion, materiality and light.

The exterior is defined by a wooden facade of vertical slats, shutters and sliding panels made from the same material — presenting a compact, uniform volume when closed, and a permeable relationship between interior and garden when opened. A glazed corridor connects the garage to the main building, acting as a transitional threshold that frames views of the surrounding landscape.

The interior organisation draws from the Raumplan concept: varying ceiling heights define different living areas without fragmenting the overall spatial flow. A sculptural staircase becomes the central element, shaping movement through the house and reinforcing the dialogue between light, volume and material. Wood dominates throughout — floors, walls, ceilings and joinery — bringing warmth and tactile continuity to every space, with deep green ceramic tiles at the fireplace wall providing a bold chromatic counterpoint.

This photographic series focuses on the relationship between architecture, light and material. Rather than isolating individual details, the images aim to convey the spatial logic of the house and the quiet clarity of the architect's vision — how contemporary design can emerge from context without imitation.
