Five Patio Houses

Five patio houses slightly offset from each other sit on this plot nestled between the edge of Meilen and the surrounding forest. This project, which is tailored to the impressive environment, uses a specific building typology to respond to the views of the lake and forest on either side. The defining design criteria were specific references to the natural surroundings, high quality internal and external spaces, and a smooth transition from interior to exterior. The low-rise construction with a pavilion-like effect blends sensitively with its surroundings.
