Lake residence Neufelder see in Austria by A01 architects ZT GmbH

Article source: A01 architects ZT GmbH

On a long narrow estate in Neufeldersee there was a weekend haus to be built.The exterior design of the object was done in a restrained and timeless manner. The wave, which is the main source of inspiration in the shaping of the building, reflects itself in the exterior and interior components. Particularly remarcable is the connection of the building with the garden which offers a view to the lake.

The construction consists of a blend between reinforced concrete and steel columns. The wide cantilevered upper level was accomplished using steel trussed girders in the upper floor directly connected to the beams from the roof.The south-eastern corner can be completely opened without being restricted by any weight bearing elements, achieving a seamless transition between the exterior and the interior. The out-door courtain blends the outside with the inside, offering protection against sun rays and insects, creating an interesting shadow play in the process. The entire resort was build using high quality materials.
