About Enclave Primary Function: Tún

Book Text: Fanwege de estetyk en de ferwachtings fan de eigners waard de tún pland as in enklave midden yn de stêd. Wat earst as in útdaging like, blykte úteinlik in foardiel te wêzen. De tún omfettet in gebiet mei meardere nivo's mei ferskate ûntspanningssônes tusken it grien. Der binne ferskate terrassen yn de daliks omjouwing fan it hûs. Yn ien dêrfan, midden yn de stilte en it lûd fan wetter, lêst de eigner boeken en yn de folgjende genietet it hiele gesin fan it iten. Yn 'e simmer ferpleatst it libben fan it gesin nei it swimbadgebiet.

Production Technology
Between the highest and lowest parts of the garden, the level difference is almost 3m. A significant part of the implementation consisted of construction works on the swimming pool, gazebo, retaining walls, terraces and sidewalks. A very large amount of land was transported to the entire garden. The walkways are made of large concrete slabs measuring 1m x 1m in gray, referring to the color of the floor in the house. The garden is supported in every dimension by intelligent system technology.
Design Challenge
The challenge was to adapt the garden to the height of the house, street and neighboring plots. Each of them was on a different level, which was a conflict with the designed garden. Another problem was the width of the plot only 24 m and the lack of technical access to the utility part located in the farthest place in the garden. The achievement was to hide the road for cars with a long stabilized lawn.
Research
Large garden located on a busy street. An important element is understanding the potential of the area, the needs of owners and family life, and making the space outside the house more attractive. Elements of garden architecture were coherently designed with the house and strictly according to the guidelines dictated by the owners. The selection of vegetation was also not accidental, we focused on base plants, evergreen plants and those that change at the turn of the seasons and attract insects.
Inspiration
The inspiration for the project was, on the one hand, a modern shape of the house located right next to a busy street, on the other hand, fields and meadows where horses graze. The owners' passion for modern style as well as the needs of a multi-generational and large family related to relaxation in a garden resembling a city resort in the middle of nature had an undoubted impact on the project. Due to the terrain the garden was designed on three different levels, divided into 3 different zone.
Project Duration
Project completed in 2023. The construction of the garden started spring 2023 and was finished autumn 2024. Localization Garwolin, Poland.
Operation Flow
The project aimed to create an enclave for a large, multi-generational family by separating different relaxation zones surrounded by greenery. The owners of the house start every morning by seeing the garden from the windows of the house, spend the evenings on the terrace, and feasts instead of at the dining table continue on the terrace in the garden. On sunny days, they open windows and enjoy the scent of flowers. The view from the large windows of the house must always attract attention, and the external surroundings of the house are an extension of the living space.
