The unexpected shape of the cottage is compensated by rather simple cladding materials.

The unusual shape of the house is stemming from an extremely non-standard shape of the lot with a long elongated part facing the forest to the south

It was impossible to place the house in this part entirely, but it would at the same time be a lost opportunity not to use the location this beautiful. That's how a cantilever extension with a beautiful view on the forest was created.

We have chosen two main materials for the facade: black painted metal and sandstone panels. Sandstone is an echo of the Soviet past, but if you look at it with a fresh eye you can see its interesting texture and unique shades.

In contrast, the sandstone is complemented by a black-painted metal that takes on a graphite hue in the sun.

For comfortable work we placed the offices in the northern part and made a separate path to a tea gazebo, so that one could go to the green oasis with a laptop and change their working environment.

We raised the SPA block with the pool and the rest of the rooms above the ground so we didn't have to make a basement mechanical story, and to provide enough sunlight to the recreation areas.

Then a carport over the garage with a semicircular cut: a simple reference to history and great masters of architecture make a low-rise building project truly special.

One of our signature touches is the portal entrance with an unusual staircase shape. This is an iconic technique of the Venetian sculptor-architect Carlo Scarpa.

A unique custom design that combines bold shapes and simple materials. Nonstandard solutions are always an interesting challenge and solid growing points to us.
