A big nut tree at the center of the
property determines the concept. The tree was integrated as the western
boundary into the design, forming a courtyard.
Hence the title of the house, “Nuts”.
In order to preserve the tree, an exception from the minimal distance to
the neighbor was sought. The unusual request was finally endorsed with the help
of the nature preservation agency. The painting of the top floor with walnut
and walnut leaf motifs is planned.
