Ko Haus M he whare tūmataiti kei Tiefenbach, Tiamana, i oti i te tau 2012. Ko te āhua tautika-kore o te taha o roto e whakamahara ana i te āhua o tētahi maina. E 10 mita te whānui, e 8 mita te roa o te ruma matua, ā, e 6 mita te teitei. He papa taiwhanga āhua whakairo e iri ana i roto i te ruma matua, e wehewehe ana i tōna teitei. Ka whakamahi te whare matua i tētahi anga rākau kua oti kē te hanga mai i ngā kurupae rākau kua whakapiripiri, ā, ka whakairi mai te taiwhanga mai i reira. Ko te ruma-o-raro me te tuanui i runga ake i konā he raima i hangaia i tōna wāhi tūturu, ā, ko te uhi tuanui he konumohe konganuku.

- Unique Properties
- The asymmetric shape of the space within the residence evokes the image of a mine. This results in a very high room, which is therefore segmented by a sculpturally shaped, suspended gallery layer. A lively and tense spatial structure is being formed hereby. The large frontal terrace plane operates like a stage set and provides the room with an immense depth.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- high main room 10000 mm x 8000 mm x 6000 mm

- Production Technology
- The shape of the main building consists of an entirely prefabricated Wood Frame construction. The construction itself is made up of symmetrically arranged glued wooden beams.
The gallery plane is hung from those beams and seemingly floats within the main room.
The basement as well as the ceiling on top of it are made of in-situ concrete. The parapet of the terrace is made up of a single pre-built element of concrete.
Concrete was also used in the outside area for the ramp, the path towards the entrance and the driveway.
The roof cladding is made from metal (aluminium alloy). - Design Challenge
- The experimental architecture, as well as the resulting geometry and the artisanal execution require a huge amount of passion and concentration from all parties involved.
- Research
- The final design is a direct result of the original construction project. The task was to enable the habitant ever-changing spatial impressions within the main room depending on perspective.
The sculptural crafting and arranging of architectural planes on the in- and outside creates emotions.
The chosen geometry, the monolithic flair of the interior, as well as the vividly composed outside elements imitate archaic shapes of the traditional mining business, which have been transformed into modern architecture. - Inspiration
- The client's profession of Markscheider basically describes a surveyor who specializes in the mining business. The main goal for the concept of the building was the transformation of typical archaic mining shapes into modern architecture.
