About House Elvesgarden Ann An Àite-Còmhnaidh Prìobhaideach

Bha am pròiseact na oidhirp air rudeigin cumhachdach a chruthachadh gun a bhith àrd. Àite mothachail a bheir seachad suaimhneas agus a bheir diofar sheallaidhean don nàdar mun cuairt. Tha e mu dheidhinn an t-solais agus na dòighean-obrach gun àireamh a tha coltach ris: an dubhar. Thogadh an tigh do bhantraich òig mar thearmann d'a h-anam. Tha an àile fo bhuaidh cultar Iapanach de sheòmraichean leth-dhorcha far a bheil coltas gu bheil na dathan air an tiormachadh agus an deàrrsadh a’ tighinn bhon taobh a-staigh. Saoghal far a bheil dorchadas làn blàths agus dath domhainn.

Tags: House, garden, natural materials, light, pool
Production Technology: Concrete, steel, wood, stone, glass
Research: So, it is no wonder that the architecture is deeply connected with nature. The garden with its forest like atmosphere was really the starting point of the project. A major dream from the owner was namely to have her first garden she dreamt of since her childhood.
Inspiration: It was more than an aesthetic exercise.
It was a spiritual retreat, a place to cleanse body and soul.
The house was build for a young widow as a retreat for her soul.
The atmosphere is influenced by the Japanese culture of semi dark shadowed rooms where the colours seem damped and the glow comes from within. A world where darkness is full of warmth and profound colourfulness.
Project Duration: The project started in 2017 in Munich and finished in 2019
Operation Flow: The project was an attempt to create something powerful without being loud. A sensitive place that gives tranquility and offers various perspectives to the surrounding nature.
It is all about light and the countless approaches to its counterpart: the shadow.
