About Beach Cabin on the Baltic Sea Hospitium

Haec parva cenator in litore Maris Baltici prope Gdansk cum simplici forma sua in ambitum litus naturaliter convenit. Aedificium duas areas offert: partem opaca cum fenestris et hortus hiemalis plene vitreus. Domus vitrea perspicua non solum liberam aspectum maris et litoris praebet, sed etiam energiam solarem in passivo modo adhibet ad solacium umbraticum meliorandum in climate relative frigido in Polonia septentrionali. Systema Solarlux constructionis horti hiemalis cum suis perfiles lignum-aluminium gracili effectum dat filigreum.

Unique Properties: This small gastronomy facility on the Baltic beach near Gdansk with its simple form fits naturally into the beach environment. The building offers two spaces: closed and completely glazed in the form of a winter garden, which lets sunlight into the interior and completely opens the view of the sea and the beach. The strong contrast effect of the two components comes into its own both during the day and at night, when the interior of the winter garden is welcomingly illuminated.
The building stands on stilts so as not to touch the terrain directly. It literally floats above the sand
Dimensions & Packaging: The building is about 6 m wide and 18 m long.
1/3 is transparent, 2/3 are opaque.
Tags: Beach Cabin, Winter Garden, Solarlux, Solar Architecture
Production Technology: The structure of the winter garden is made in the SOLARLUX winter garden system in the wood-aluminum construction. Applied thermo-insulating glass has also properties of sun protection.
Inspiration: The building is located in the north of Poland, in a climate zone where temperatures are moderate for most of the year. The winter garden contributes to passive solar energy harvesting through its glazing and to improving the energy balance of the building. In this way, the building not only opens beautiful views of the scenic landscape, but also has ecological advantages.
Project Duration: 2022 Beach on the Baltic Sea near Gdansk
Operation Flow: In colder periods, the winter garden acts as a large air collector. The heat generated inside by solar radiation is used for heating thanks to the heat pump.
