ST HOUSE

The planning of single-family homes is a serious sin from an urban planning point of view.


As a rule, LORENZATELIERS advise the requesting prospective customer to reconsider their desire for an individually planned detached house due to the exorbitant costs and the immense effort. This form of living is only vetoable if it can enrich the family. When the family questions crusted lifestyles, spatial perception opens up new perspectives and allows architecture to shape itself after shaping the house. This has certainly happened with these builders. An exhausting, exhausting process.

 

The planning of one's own house can thus become an intense questioning of one's own life conception.


The finished house then shapes and changes the inhabitants.


In this case, LORENZATELIERS first proposed to the client a condominium with a penthouse. This turned out to be impracticable - so again a detached house. The client owns a hunt on the Hechenberg and shops in the city centre. Between these two places LORENZATELIERS pulled an axle and set up a long, narrow building. The two-storey living room opens to the Hechenberg, the work and children's rooms to the city centre. So, the house is "located". The north side is closed except for a narrow slot, the other three sides are open and offer a breath-taking mountain panorama.
