Haus e springs up towards the lake like a telescope overlooking the valley.

The base is embedded in the ground, integrates itself and determines the direction of the cantilever. supported by a v-shaped column with a long overhang towards the lake and the valley. an infinity pool leaps towards the lake joining the water of the lake and the water of the pool, merging boundaries between built environment and natural one the design is about the strong relationship between outside and inside. an absorption of nature and view relationships. in order to generate an equilibrium with the site, new relationships to the surrounding rocky landscape are created through the material concrete. the different surfaces, the bush-hammered and the smooth concrete, alternate in a kind of material play.
