A private house for several generations of a large family directly depicting the old idiom of “living under one roof”. The copmlex constellation of spaces surrounding a central living room sits under a massive yet light PVC roof, set into a large field owned by the clients.

The facades were hand-painted to achieve random coloration effect. The rooms’ decoration was largely left to the settlers’ will.

Not bad but not quite original and far from the power of the “Crystal Palace” period.
Finally some Russian freshness
