Overview

Design proposal of two serene single-family houses at the foot of the Giant Mountains.

The project site is located on an east-facing slope, at the edge of a small village, inside the Krkonoše National Park. The proposal respects the mountainous character of the area and takes advantage of the position on the hill with views into the valley.

The two detached houses are connected by a hillside recessed structure, which provides a wellness retreat for the residents.

The construction of the houses is a combination of a concrete base in the hillside and a timber structure above the ground. The load-bearing structure is thus also imprinted on the façade by a combination of wood and stone cladding.
