Structure studio Ksa Studený designed this trapezoidal concrete and glass home to border views of a forest close to the village of Pernek in Slovakia.
Dug right into a sloping website, the 200-square-metre house is fronted with a full-height glass facade and topped by a roof that can step by step turn out to be coated in crops to hide it from view.
“The inspiration was to construct one thing much like a hunter’s lodge,” Ksa Studený founder Jan Studený instructed Dezeen.
“This got here from the positioning itself, its independence, positioned on the fringe of the village and the direct orientation to the forest in opposition to the slope of the positioning,” he continued.
The house is organised throughout two flooring, with a residing, kitchen and eating space on the bottom flooring alongside a workspace and major bed room, whereas two kids’s bedrooms sit above.
Matching its exterior type, the ground plan is a trapezoid, narrowing because it enters the hillside the place darker service areas and loos are positioned, giving the residing and bed room areas unobstructed views out in direction of the panorama.
“We designed the ground plan of the home within the form of an isosceles trapezoid, mirroring its longitudinal profile. The inside area is free, divided into two flooring linked by a staircase,” defined Studený.
Full-height sliding doorways on each the bottom and first flooring permit the house to be opened up, main straight onto the sloping backyard and the forest past.
The house’s sloping concrete shell has been left uncovered each externally and internally, complemented by minimal picket furnishings and easy mild fittings that foreground the exterior views.
On both facet are projecting metal-clad varieties, which include a small window wanting east and a glass door to the west. The door offers entry from the primary flooring out onto an exterior stair main up the positioning in direction of a parking space.
“The development of the home is a concrete shell with out inside helps, manufactured from monolithic concrete. The one facade of the home is a glass wall to the south route, by which it communicates with its environment,” stated Studený.
“There are two huge timber in entrance of the home which shade this facet, so there isn’t a want for added sun-shading,” he added.
Ksa Studený was based in 1995 by Studený and is at the moment primarily based in Bratislava.
