The newly designed house stems from the need to supplement the existing family house and the extensive garden with necessary facilities, a greenhouse, a summer apartment, and a cellar for storing vegetables and wine. The house is positioned across the communication axis, which originates from "
japanerie" and passes through the "
cultivation" part of the garden. The communication axis runs through the newly designed house and ends in its atrium.
The main operational units of the house are:
- The greenhouse, which forms a separate mass element attached on the eastern side and is separated by the passing communication axis.
- Storage spaces for tools and other maintenance needs for the garden and greenhouse. These are located to the west of the communication axis and are supplemented with a "garden toilet."
- The cellar is accessible by a staircase from the communication axis and contains spaces for storing fruits and vegetables, with a filtered wine storage accessible and a wine cellar that will be thermally insulated and can be heated with an electric heater.
- The garden room is also accessible from the communication axis by a short connecting corridor. It is illuminated and interconnected from the south and north from the atrium by French windows. It will serve for supplementary gardening work.
- The summer apartment is attached to the northern side of the building, closing off the northeast part of the "relaxation" garden into its atrium. The summer apartment consists of 2 rooms with a kitchenette and a bathroom with a toilet. The space is linked to the east with the atrium and partially to the west with the orchard.
- The inner atrium complements the relaxation area of the garden with its curve of the roof. It connects individual spaces and the communication axis, creating a covered area for sitting by the outdoor fireplace.
The entire structure is designed as a single story in a footprint form of the letter "
L", divided materially into two masses. One is the mass of the greenhouse with a concrete base and a sloped roof facing south, and the other is the "
timber construction" with wooden cladding, which has a flat roof with a minimal parapet height to minimize the vertical impact in the garden. Apart from the greenhouse and the cellar, the building is constructed as a timber structure with wooden larch board cladding.
