The 40 square meter house forms its own small, sprouting building body that shapes itself according to views and the rhythm of the day. The house almost floats above the terrain like a Japanese pavilion on the sloping ground. The roof and construction bind together the terraces and the interior spaces from a raised level, with stairs and edges to inhabit.

The area is characterized by an ensemble of small-scale buildings; workshops and living units of self-built houses and architectural experiments. The infill-house is tucked in between two existing buildings with three wooden frames spanning in between the neighboring houses. With a critical approach towards sustainability trends, the house is the office's first project to explore the idea of a structural frame system independent of the climate screen, doing so with a reinterpretation of a traditional Danish half-timbered house.
