Living room, kitchen and dining area, entrance hall, cloakroom, pantry, deck; painting studio, common room, cinema room and storage on the lower floor
A single-storey house on a sloping plot within a farm, right beside the road; the lower floor is exposed on the garden side of the slope. The vertically timber-clad volume is gathered under a single mono-pitch roof rising towards the garden; at the entrance the extended eaves are carried on two slender columns. On the ground floor the entrance hall and cloakroom lead into one living space with an island kitchen, a long dining table and a fireplace; the timber deck in front of the living room rises over the slope on slender steel columns and hangs above the garden. The lower floor lines up a painting studio, a common room and a cinema room along the glazed garden facade; storage, a WC and the stair sit at the back. A lower deck in front of the studio and common room forms a second outdoor space. The concept images were produced with AI assistance and their stone cladding and flat roof differ from the model; plans, sections and elevations were taken from the model.
