Textual content description supplied by the architects. Villa JJ is situated on a cliff on the shoreline of Stockholm’s southern archipelago. The local weather right here may be harsh, nature is formed by rain and storms as a lot as by solar and drought. The constructing custom was characterised by easy buildings, typically gathered in clusters to guard one another, comparable to fishermen’s sheds or small farms. The homes had been low, clad with wooden boards, grey or nearly white.
Constructing on this surroundings is about working with the few supplies that the placement and circumstances have supplied. The constructing custom is our inspiration, however the situations right now will not be fairly the identical as they had been then. We wish to preserve the angle of conventional building in such a means that the best and most reasonable means of constructing has all the time been sought. Constructing elements and assemblies are sometimes clearly declared. The normal constructing is its guide, see and imitate, it says, then it is going to be good.
In Villa JJ, we attempt to present how one can construct with out repeating how it’s often finished. The roof end is abruptly reduce off with out lining boards to indicate what the within of the roof appears to be like like, the rafters are overlong in order that they will help a water channel of booked sheet metallic, but in addition in order that the ends of the wooden forged shadows on the façade and are ornamental. We wish to make the most of the decorative potential of requirements. It is the pure angle of arts and crafts, whether or not it is about knitting a sweater or constructing a home. Magnificence happens as a consequence of the work.
The challenge consists of three quite simple buildings. The primary comprises the kitchen, eating space, and front room, the second home is smaller and is a bit of increased within the terrain, the place we’ve the bed room, tub, and garments storage. The third a part of the constructing homes know-how, storage, and area for friends. Between the three homes is the doorway, it has a flat roof and partitions of glass. The ground is identical as out on the terrace, gray Offerdal slate. An area between inside and outside.
