This house is situated next to Zawiercie, on a long, slightly sloping site in the buffer zone of the Eagles' Nests natural landscape park. It is set in green surroundings dominated by agricultural use. The surroundings also feature old stone churches, the towering ruins of Morsko and Ogrodzieniec castles, and Monadnocks scattered around rising several feet above the surrounding terrain.
In this picturesque scenery, using simply shaped volumes and local materials, this project endeavors to become an integral part of its surrounding landscape.
The house consists of two main volumes: a residential zone and a two-car garage, which are connected by openwork, wooden links. This unifies the two separate volumes, allowing light into the small courtyard in between.
After the Dominus Winery (Herzog & de Meuron) and the Gabion House (Titus Bernhard), gabions became frequently used by architects. In this case the main part of the building is finished with gabion baskets (filled with local limestone), and used as an outer skin to camouflage and blend the house in with the landscape.
For roofing, graphite and titanium-zinc sheets with standing seam cladding was used.
On the L-shape ground floor there is a main living space area, open kitchen, and private master bedroom with bathroom and wardrobe. On the top floor, two bedrooms and a smaller bathroom are located.
The most striking component of the house is a day zone, which is a double-height open space. Big windows present carefully framed views of southwest situated garden.
The property is heated by a heat pump. It is also equipped with mechanical ventilation, as well as heat recovery and triple-glazed windows.
