About The Circus Vacation House
The Circus is a vacation house designed as a relaxed retreat for a client who enjoys cars and for visiting friends. The guiding concept is spending time with cars. Unlike a typical house with a built-in garage, the layout blurs the boundaries between people, cars, and rooms. The form is inspired by a circus tent. A large volume with twenty-four sides contains an independent inner volume shaped like a wide round table, which forms the second story. The supporting core uses no posts, and tension is maintained by slanted outer walls.

- Unique Properties
- “Spending time with cars” is the concept behind this vacation house intended as a fun retreat for a car-loving client and friends. In contrast to a typical house with a built-in garage, the aim here was to blur the boundaries between people, cars, and rooms in a relaxed environment.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by a circus tent, the simple but bold structure is made up of a large 24-sided volume and an independent volume inside shaped like a large, round table that forms the second story. The core that supports the tent has no posts, but instead maintains its tension through slanted outer walls.
