Designing this contemporary single family dwelling, we took inspiration from local tradiltional building techniques, though we had to track down the raw materials in Romania and the few remaining experienced craftsmen 500 km away.The roof structure has a primary and secondary wood framework supporting planking, on which the water reed faggots are fastened. About 60 cm thick, this reed roof guarantees an excellent natural insulation, is fully waterproof and needs very little upkeep.
