About The Fifth Element Stanovanjska hiša

Hiša je sestavljena iz petih vzporednih pravokotnikov. Garažni in spa blok sta zamaknjena glede na bivalni volumen. Ščitita ga pred radovednimi pogledi ter oblikujeta kompakten prostor za vhod in rekreacijo. Spa visi na konzoli nad tlemi in je s svojim zastekljanjem odprt v naravo. Fasade, obrnjene proti gozdu, imajo okna v polni višini, ki bivalne prostore napolnijo s svetlobo in zrakom. Vodna instalacija na terasi ustvarja mikroklimo v poletni vročini. Dvonadstropni stolp dnevne sobe oblikuje vertikalno os, ki podreja vse elemente stavbe in krajine.
