This is a design firm owner‘s home. A four member family house. The house stand on the hill as on the mound. From all sides house is surrounded of a river valley. Fantastically beatiful views is the reason why house has a lot of glass. Extrenal views are part of the interior.
On the roof of a recreation area there are: sauna, jacuzzi and a terrace, which offers 180 degrees excellent views.
Facade is lined in graphite color TRESPA ATHLON panels. Black color helps integrate the building into the environment, especially at night.

Hi:
Nice House.
However, the image labelled First Floor really shows a Roof Plan. Do you have the First Floor plan?
Thanks!
The dark exterior is so ominous compared to the warm tones of the interior spaces. Nice design. Would be a good entry to the Holcim Awards.
Interiors are fine… exterior… I’m not insure about completely black building… little bit hard to environment…
It’s a pity the photos are not so professional…
what specific are you talking about? Cesonis is a good photographer and pictures are ok. of course it’s not the best arch photography in the world, but this is lithuania problem with arch presentation in general. I don’t like few things in these pictures, but it’s not major mistakes, composition, space readability is ok in most cases. I think Cesonis don’t like to use digital post production for his pictures but he is not the only one with attitude like this…
Looks very Swedish inspired (see Arkitekthus). The use of material almost looks brutalist.
