Family house in Nové Dvory

Building plot in a peaceful edge of Trutnov - Nové Dvory captivated builders with a view of the Krkonoš mountains. The majority of the plot is only slightly sloped, but it is separated from the access road by a meter and a half high fence. We received an assignment for a single-storey house with a spacious garage and a workshop, which was not to be connected to the house. The only regulation that influenced the design was the requirement for a gable roof.
Because we wanted to combine the northwest-facing view of the Krkonoš mountains with glazing into the southern living part of the garden, we chose a composition of two masses arranged in an L-shape. The cellar part with a gable roof oriented east-west houses the living space and technical facilities. In the non-cellared part with a flat roof, an entrance hall and a bedroom area are designed.
The connection of both parts is lightened on both sides by a façade set back from the roof line. A covered entrance to the house is created in the eastern façade, while in the western façade, there is a wind-protected niche of the covered terrace. The white façades of the house are complemented by wooden cladding between the window columns and a plinth of gray slate.
The house is entered via an outdoor staircase. In the covered entrance, a wooden-lined niche with a bench is designed. The small vestibule with storage space leads to the entrance hall with a view of the garden. The hall connects the living part of the house with the bedroom part.
