The traditional long-gabled farmhouse consisted of a barn with a stable section. The stables section was transformed into a dwelling during the renovation.
The first floor of the new building can be read as a loose volume placed on top of the existing joists. This preserves the spaciousness of the stable, which is characterized by a structure of wooden beams.
The existing massive brick façade is replaced by a fully glazed curtain wall, which provides an optimal green experience of the wide expanse and the small river.
