Text description provided by the architects. A triangular, forestal plot is situated in one of pre-war garden cities around Warsaw. Apart from responding to client's brief, the house had to respond to it's primary condition of need to maintain maximum of existing trees, which could be obtained only through fitting structure's shape into the trees. The condition was partially imposed by restrictive local regulations due to status of Podkowa being a natural and cultural monument.
