Barn house in Wieliczka
Wieliczka, Poland
Located near Kraków, the Barn house occupies a narrow, steeply sloping plot with a southern exposure and sweeping panoramic views. The project presented a considerable design challenge: despite the difficult terrain, it was essential to maintain the building’s balanced proportions and a high standard of architectural quality. The architecture therefore makes deliberate use of scale and proportion, ensuring that, despite its size, the house remains elegant, restrained, and firmly rooted in its setting.
The design draws inspiration from the Wooden Architecture Route—its underlying principles, rhythm, and tradition. This concept formed the building’s classical, compact form, which has been enriched with contemporary material and functional solutions. Timber is used in a variety of configurations, including wooden shingles and both vertical and horizontal cladding, complemented by ceramic elements, stone, and glass. Rather than directly replicating traditional forms, the project treats them as a source of structural logic, facade rhythm, and an honest approach to materials.
Large glazed openings provide the interiors with abundant natural light, while external blinds protect them from excessive solar heat gain. The house retains a compact and clearly defined form, within which the residential functions have been organised in a logical and legible manner.
