Single-family house

New Orange House is a single-family residence in Poland, designed as a fully integrated architectural and interior project. Conceived as a contemporary private home, the project emphasizes continuity between architecture, interior space, and landscape, ensuring a coherent design language from the overall form to material and spatial detail. Eklekt Atelier The house is defined by a strong horizontal composition based on the contrast between solidity and lightness. A stone-clad ground floor anchors the building to the site, while the upper level appears as a dark, cantilevered volume that provides privacy for the night zone. Large glazed openings and recessed volumes establish a direct visual and spatial connection between the interior... More

Located on the southern shore of Lake Rupanco in southern Chile, the 3C2C House is a single-family residence designed to blend seamlessly with its natural surroundings. The project is composed of three elongated volumes connected by two enclosed corridors—hence the name “3C2C” (3 Casas, 2 Conectores). This configuration preserves the openness of the site, framing lake and mountain views while reducing the building’s visual impact. © Nico Saieh © Nico Saieh © Nico Saieh © Nico Saieh The first volume contains the double-height social area—including kitchen, dining, and living spaces—with large windows oriented toward the lake and the Andes. The second volume hosts th... More

This luxury residence was embedded into this steep hillside to overlook Lake Travis from two confluent directions. We were challenged to create views through, and access to, the pool from every room on the main level. In response, we created a glass jewell box that sits on top of a concrete plinth. The main entry area is an open void that bridges the lake to the user upon immediate entry. The lower level is is comprised of four individual private suites that pierce through the concrete shell to accommodate lake views.   More

IDEA The main idea was to create something different and original. Not just a single-family house, but an abstract form. We wanted to create a building that refers to the mountainous area, a house that seems to be a result of tectonics and not design processes. MUS ARCHITECTS photo Tomasz Zakrzewski This thought was the starting point of the project and the frame that kept the space composition in check. Therefore, we tried to design and implement the concept of a space by escaping the standards associated with single-family houses. We wanted this house to emeryt like an erratic boulder embedded in a mountain slope, not an architectural form with walls, windows and a roof. MUS ARCHITECTS photo Tomasz Zakrzewski FORM "Black R...

With its wide walls of glass and a ribbon-like white façade that winds its way around the building, this home is so light and mobile in appearance that it resembles a futuristic vessel that has sailed in from the lake and found itself a natural place to dock. The land is at the edge of the village where housing meets the countryside. The railway lines behind the plot are a dynamic yet soothing boundary, and in front of the house there is a local access road and the lake. The building reflects all that movement. The design features a floor plan that goes from wide to narrow to follow the railway lines and shape of the plot. The striking façade wraps around the building, drawing the eye continuously upward: the house never feels stiff o... More

A newbuilt Single Family House The untypical facade of coloured plain tiles make this house a peculiar new member of the urban fabric. Simultaneously the hasty passerby will not neccessarily take notice of the greenish structure blending with plants and trees deep in the gap between neighbouring buildings. The huge number of plain tiles and the chosen range of colour lead to an interplay between the very traditional building material in its almost handmade haptic quality and the pixel-like apearance of the whole facade from a distance. The colour gradiant is laid out as a repeating pattern and is planed into great detail. It recalls the former nursery on the estate and also interprets the clients brief to built a „garden house“.
