Between the Lines

Creating an architectural ensemble is challenging and exciting, especially when a new building transitions from dynamic, flexible, living lines born of nature to man-made lines.  Andrey Avdeenko This chalet was built as a complement to the main house, a separate pavilion for relaxation where there are no worries and fuss. The building is simple and laconic in its forms, restrained in materials, and clear and functionally comfortable. Andrey Avdeenko Large windows made the chalet transparent, mixing with nature, and the reflection of the environment dissolved the building between the trees and the main house. The walls became the stage of the shadow theater, where the main actor is nature, playing incredible performances eve... More

Chalet AN

The Chalet is part of an intervention that saw the renovation and expansion of an old structure surrounded by greenery in an important ski resort in the Valtellina Alps.

Enjoy the Silence

This project was implemented on the territory of an already existing family house. This cosy chalet was created thanks to a combination of opposites – as a hiding place for solitary meditations and relaxation from the frantic pace of life or a place for warm meetings with close friends and active communication. Serhii Polyushko From the outside, the austere and minimalist building has enormous stained glass windows to incorporate the vast and varied panorama of the garden into the interior. Adjoining territory created the landscape long before the idea of its construction. Our task was to fit it harmoniously into the existing environment. Serhii Polyushko The building on stilts is elevated above the ground. The chalet&rsq... More
