Article source: Christian Schwienbacher The design of this house is the result of the relationship between the individual functions: on the south side of the building, the living room and the kitchen are on the same level with direct access to the terrace. Behind the kitchen there is the “Stube room”, behind the living room the library. Upstairs there are bedrooms and baths. In the basement there are cellars, the garage and technical rooms. Formally, the building is a soft butterfly-like shape with rounded corners, where each floor is not exactly on top of each other.
This results in building cut-outs, external views and visual references, as well as in intimate lighting situations on the corridor upstairs. The façade, a vertical formwork of treated oak, is interrupted floor by floor by horizontal white bands corresponding to the floors. The whole house has been furnished with high-quality flooring and furniture made in walnut, the favorite wood of the client. The walnut has been combined with other materials such as steel or white painted parts. Contact Christian Schwienbacher
