The house consists of two masses - prisms. The lower and smaller part contains the entrance area and creates the first plane of the building. The second and larger part is the actual living space. Both masses and their alignment are connected by the motif of an overhanging gable wall on the side facades into one whole. The overhanging wall denies the actual size of the house. Thanks to it, the house also gains a different three-dimensional expression from various sides. The size of the house is relative. Viewed from the street, it appears differently than when viewed from the garden. From the street, it looks very small. From the garden, on the other hand, it appears much larger. To keep to the limited budget of 3.1 million CZK for the family house, it was necessary to choose a construction solution in the project that would be less demanding to implement. The construction solution is further enhanced by limiting the number of chosen window formats and the width of the windows restricted by type construction. The simple building structures result in a very austere appearance. However, the house has a three-dimensional shape, where the application of light and shadow on the facades can also be considered. The contrast of shadows and their different character in different weather conditions supports the changing image of the house. The basic masses of the building are divided only by window formats and a balcony. The overall austerity is supported by metal accessories of the balcony and French window railings or the staircase solution in the interior. The railing solution with plexiglass infill is designed intentionally so that it does not deny the basic shape of the house or the internal space of the staircase. The house is relatively small, with a total usable area of 152 m². But even a small house should contain a sense of certain generosity. Here, this is reflected in the layout of the building, in the alternating character of the internal spaces and their dimensions. After a small entrance area, there is a staircase area inserted through the height of the entire house structure, and finally, a living space across the entire width of the building.
