Old Farmhouse in Munich, Germany by Peter Haimerl

Article source: Peter Haimerl 

The oldest property in Alt-Riem. The farmhouse, consisting of a house and a stable, was built around 1750. In 2013 the Schusterbauerhaus still retained parts of the housing construction and remains of the stable. Two residential units were installed in this historic structure. The concept of the architect Peter Haimerl concept is based on two premises: retention of the historical building substance and at the same time the introduction of a spatial innovation. It connects the residential house and the stable using a spectacularly inserted concrete cube.

An arresting feature of this project is the cement cube that is boldly integrated into the structure and which, to this end, has been rotated 45 degrees in order to echo the slope of the roof. This unusual concept successfully transforms the remaining historic buildings and the attendant residential spaces and stables into a distinctive modern residential building. The second unit is in close proximity to the existing structure, which retains the historical features as far as possible and leaves them noticeable.
