The Design

About Lakeside Living Haus A Gaart

D'Architektur ass eng Bezéiung zu der Natur auszedrécken, an deem d'Haus en Deel vun der natierlecher Ëmfeld ass - eng Seekierch mat diskret Interventiounen an eng einfach hëlze Schuel ze kreéieren déi suergfälteg op d'Landschaft setzt, déi als Flüchtling handelt. Luzentschatten aus de existente Beem ginn an de Raum eran. D'Graszone schéngt den Interieur vum Haus ze verlängeren. D'Zil vun dësem Projet war Organesch Architektur ze kreéieren andeems hien de Site Charakter ausdréckt, d'Artikulatioun vu Raum a Material, de Liichtdesign an d'kontrastéierend Qualitéit vu privaten an oppenen Raum.

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: Lake site dimension- 6.000 sqm, 50m shore an 2000 sqm wet meadow had been renaturated by cutting off the drainage system.

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.
Project Duration: 2011 - 2013, lake Starnberg, Bavaria, Germany
Operation Flow: It is a low maintenance, natural hideaway for an old couple.
