Minimal House

LOSTINARCHITECTURE as Architect and Interior Architect

- width 2,6 metres - for the client´s children. A small transparent gap acts as a link to the existing house, built in 1904. A challenge!

 

This small glassobject gives some view to the private garden behind and conserves the ancient facade with its vegetation. The clients asked for more place for their children without reducing the area of the existing garden. Thus the project was placed in the small lateral distance to the neighbour. It includes a new spacious entrance and the areas for the two children.

 

Due to the small space, the walls had to be minimized to meet still the requirements of the low energy level. The exterior form of the wooden building acts on the surrounding and the natural ligthing of parts of the garden.
