Structure studio Ksa Studený designed this trapezoidal concrete and glass home to border views of a forest close to the village of Pernek in Slovakia.
Dug right into a sloping web site, the 200-square-metre house is fronted with a full-height glass facade and topped by a roof that can regularly turn into lined in crops to hide it from view.
“The inspiration was to construct one thing just like a hunter’s lodge,” Ksa Studený founder Jan Studený informed Dezeen.
“This got here from the location itself, its independence, positioned on the fringe of the village and the direct orientation to the forest in opposition to the slope of the location,” he continued.
The house is organised throughout two flooring, with a residing, kitchen and eating space on the bottom ground alongside a workspace and most important bed room, whereas two youngsters’s bedrooms sit above.
Matching its exterior type, the ground plan is a trapezoid, narrowing because it enters the hillside the place darker service areas and bogs are positioned, giving the residing and bed room areas unobstructed views out in the direction of the panorama.
“We designed the ground plan of the home within the form of an isosceles trapezoid, mirroring its longitudinal profile. The inside house is free, divided into two flooring related by a staircase,” defined Studený.
Full-height sliding doorways on each the bottom and first flooring enable the house to be opened up, main immediately onto the sloping backyard and the forest past.
The house’s sloping concrete shell has been left uncovered each externally and internally, complemented by minimal wood furnishings and easy gentle fittings that foreground the exterior views.
On both aspect are projecting metal-clad varieties, which include a small window wanting east and a glass door to the west. The door offers entry from the primary ground out onto an exterior stair main up the location in the direction of a parking space.
“The development of the home is a concrete shell with out inside helps, product of monolithic concrete. The one facade of the home is a glass wall to the south course, by which it communicates with its environment,” mentioned Studený.
“There are two huge bushes in entrance of the home which shade this aspect, so there isn’t a want for added sun-shading,” he added.
Ksa Studený was based in 1995 by Studený and is at present based mostly in Bratislava.
