The Design

About House of the Breathing Void Stanovanjska hiša

Hiša dihajoče praznine je stanovanjska hiša, organizirana okoli osrednjega atrija. Atrij deluje kot odprta praznina, v kateri zrak in svetloba prosto krožita, in tvori okoljsko jedro doma. Atrij hkrati ustvarja nenehen dialog med notranjimi in zunanjimi prostori. Hiša sledi bioklimatskim načelom z jasno južno orientacijo, ki zajema sončno svetlobo, podpira pasivno ogrevanje in spodbuja naravno prezračevanje. Ista orientacija daje stavbi diagonalno obliko, kar je odziv tako na prostorske kot na podnebne danosti.

Unique Properties: The “House of the Breathing Void” is conceived as a sanctuary of openness, a dwelling that breathes, listens, and connects. Anchored between earth and sky, the house establishes a continuous dialogue between interior and exterior, shaped by climate, light, and Mediterranean lifestyle. At its center lies an atrium, the open heart of the home, where air, light, and life circulate freely, forming both the emotional and environmental core.
Inspiration: The Atrium was the concept inspiration of the project. The house was conceived through bioclimatic principles, its geometry shaped by a clear southern orientation that captures sunlight, enhances passive heating, and invites natural ventilation. From this dual idea, the atrium and the orientation toward the sun, a diagonal gesture arose in the building’s form, a spatial and climatic response that defines its identity. Here, light becomes both material and structure, carving paths through the interior.
