The Design

About House Elvesgarden Privatresidenz

De Projet war e Versuch eppes mächteges ze kreéieren ouni haart ze sinn. Eng sensibel Plaz, déi Rou gëtt a verschidde Perspektiven op d'Natur ronderëm bitt. Et geet alles ëm d'Liicht an déi onendlech Approche fir säi Kolleg: de Schied. D'Haus gouf fir eng jonk Witfra als Réckzuch fir hir Séil gebaut. D'Atmosphär ass beaflosst vun der japanescher Kultur vu semi-däischter Schiedzëmmer, wou d'Faarwen gedämpft schéngen an de Glanz vu bannen kënnt. Eng Welt wou Däischtert voller Hëtzt an déif faarweg ass.

Dimensions & Packaging: 1600 m2
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.
