Doublesingle Storey House is located in Grabowa in a beautiful area on the slope above the stream.

The goal was to design a building that meets the expectations of clients while preserving the unique naturalness of the surrounding. The idea of creating the doublesingle storey layout came of our willing to enable the residents freely enter and exit the building no matter where they are. It was also a very natural way of slope dedicated floor plan development.

Shape and form of the house follow the sun path and site’s panorama in order to deliver clear interior view openings on the forest, meadow and the stream. We proposed aged and fawn wooden planks for the façades – the most often seen type of façade in rural architecture typical for this region. These would be obtained from disassembled local sheds. The simplicity of form resulting from smooth slope-house-slope transition, use of the raw building envelope and minimized environment interference are the major features of the Doublesingle Storey House.

despite the choice of material the uniformity bugged me at first… although it’s grown on me quite a bit. I still think it could afford to add a little contrast (emphasizing different volumes) with other local materials or a change in color.

The project is fine, nicely balanced; overall nothing special. But those chairs are so-o-o-o sexy :) As always, the devil is… exactly!… in details.

I like the unapologetic way this house sits atop the undulating ground. #architecture (via @archdaily) http://bit.ly/dcM23T
