Since a narrow part of the green parcel is connected to the adjoining street, GAISS placed a section of the house on this stretch while forming a focus towards the garden in the wider backside area. in this way, the land efficiency of the project was maximized. the house can be experienced as a journey, starting from the public street and moving towards the private garden in the back. a covered passageway runs along an unheated garage and creates sheltered access to the house. this path continues further inside the house through a wardrobe area and past two bedrooms.
The end of this axis is marked by an ample living space with an open kitchen. this area has wall to wall glazing which opens towards the garden in the south. a sliding partition has been placed in order to divide a nook for watching tv from the rest of the space. the final section of the house consists of a home office and a master bedroom. all of the living spaces are oriented towards south-east and south-west to maximize solar gains, which help to reduce heating demand during the winter.
