Check out this small dwelling located in the countryside of Switzerland. Designed by FOVEA Architects, the residence boasts a strong aesthetic with a sharply angled facade. The titled upper volume (it is inclined at 40 degrees) faces south, and its geometry balances the need for privacy and light. The lower level is a simple rectangular floor plan with a patio; an outdoor area that seems contained by the angled volume above. Large windows allow natural light to illuminate the interior, and also provide great views of the surroundings. The home was prefabricated and is clad in painted pine planks that allow it to blend in with the rural architecture of the area.
Check out more images after the break.

As seen on designboom.
I wonder why they didn’t add windows in the front roof as they did in the other side.
Drawings please? (a section would be particularly helpful)
I’v seen this project, very interesting solution about windows inclined to outside…
Wierd.

Is that spiderman on the window?
I wonder how the 2nd floor windows can be cleaned.
