The virtually ‚shocking‘ modern extension with its red fair-faced
concrete and the flat roof opens the normality of living under a saddle-roof.
The small estate house from the fifties, the basis of the extension, is not
being copied or falsified by using the technical advances of the 21st century,
but experiences an independent, modern continuation. Thus inside, at close
range to each other, very different worlds of experiences emerge: the
significance of great apertures, wide views, multistorey openness in contrast
to the fragmentation and narrowness of the past. What makes the ensemble,
including a new carport, so fascinating, is the contrast and the interplay of
all these influences. Different dates of origin lead, consequently from an
architectural point of view, to different results.
