Text description provided by the architects. The land is part of the Šumava National Park, which means strict requirements for the shape of the building. For maximum context, we chose the form of a traditional cottage. For the client's wish to incorporate very nice views into the landscape, we used large windows that highlight different views, whether it is the distant horizon of the Šumava saddle or the image of very close birch roots... The typical local character of the building was used, such as the significant width of the building, the location parallel to the land contours, minimal landscaping, the absence of a fence, protruding rizalit, gable roof with a half hip. The large window below it abstractly refers to the sign of the Alpine Gallery.
