The Design
About Lakeside Living Casa E Xardín
A Arquitectura é para expresar unha relación coa natureza na que a casa forma parte do medio natural; recreando unha beira do lago cun intervencións discretas e unha simple cuncha de madeira sentada coidadosamente na paisaxe actuando como refuxio. Entran no espazo sombras lucentes das árbores existentes. A zona de herba parece estender o interior da casa. O obxectivo deste proxecto foi crear Arquitectura Orgánica expresando o carácter do sitio, a articulación do espazo e o material, o deseño da luz e a calidade contrastante do espazo privado e aberto.

- Unique Properties
- A Summerhouse with garage, a boathouse and a Sauna perfectly integrated in to the lake shore. Natural aging materials support the concept 'Gesamtkunstwerk', where the Architecture, Garden and Interior spaces are in perfect harmony. The building is composed of a concrete body and a crafted wooden shell with a light axis running through it ending in a pier at the lake. The site was re naturalized with grasses. Wooden walkways lead to a boathouse and a generous Terrace overlooking the lake.
- Dimensions & Packaging

- Production Technology
- The lake side was re naturalized with grasses. Wooden walkways lead to a boathouse and a generous Terrace overlooking the lake.
- Design Challenge
- The lake clay was the most difficult part for constructing of the boat house and foundation of the main house.
- Research
- We tried to reinterprete the athmosphere of the surrounding wetland area which is famous for its original beauty. It means only grasses, lillys and Filipendula ulmaria as mass plantation
- Inspiration
- The dream of the owners was to build a house onto the narrow lake site which has a close connection to nature combined with a Japanese atmosphere. The Japanese culture reflects a feeling of sophistication, perfection in detailing, open flowing spaces and the accommodation of changing seasons. The aim of the architect was to design a Gesamtkunstwerk where the Architecture is to express a strong relationship to nature in which the house is part of the natural environment.
