I always wanted to design my own house, but after this working experience in France, I believe I am going to build it mostly by myself! I want to work on very small details. May be do some sandpaper, put my selves around, lots of lights many where. I dinner table for large group of friends. May be a winery on the corner.
It is a safe house at Warsaw, Poland. A giant cube with sliding walls. If it seems to be a hard rock, it is designed as a flower blossoms. Every morning the castle opens up and closes at the dusk. It is surely a great house, but it will require great amount of energy, I know you probably have but don’t waste it, If you have solar panels at the top, then you can do whatever you want.
This house has a design award in 2009, and there is no doubt. Even though I say that will be energy consuming, it is a design of my childhood, dynamic objects, transforming continuously.
If you are wondering about the materials they use;
The construction is a concrete monolith. Only the movable elements are made in light steel structure. Both concrete and steel walls are insulated with rock wool, and covered with 15 mm slabs of waterproof alder plywood, that was stained to darker tone, in order to make the house look alike the other buildings in the surroundings. The fence, that unites with the movable walls, is the same 2.2 m high, and is covered with an identical dark plywood. The interior, to stay in contrast, is kept in white. The floors are made of concrete and whitewashed oak. The walls and ceilings are finished with concrete and whitewashed cement plates.
It is wooden. I wonder the interior. It looks like a house for a mathematician for me.
It is from Spain, I love the design but I want the sun most!
May be I should have chosen architecture, is it too late?
and Mondays
