Residential houses are located on a visually exposed
southern slopes above the city center Luhacovice. It forms one of the first
objects emerging residential enclave in this place. Location of home helps
create a horizon of the surrounding landscape. For this reason, much attention
was paid to a soft hilly relief was not disrupt the fitting of rough objects or
significant relief changes.
The concept is based on the idea of keeping maximal of the
original slope. It was achieved by distribution of homes into two materials.
First is heavy, concrete, emotionally "growing up" from the slope and
forming a platform for a second, largely glassed object of the upper floors.
Basement is fully integrated into the slope and is visible only through the
garage door cut into the ground. Material corresponds to the position of the
individual parts of the building. The ground floor, tied with slope is from a
perspective concrete, floor is walled and lined with wooden flooring. Interior
solution was designed only in the basic design, it will be completing later by
clients.
Typology:
Villas do not have fully standard typology of housing. They
are intended as a family pensions permanent living for two people. Visitors of
objects are considered only from relatives. All guest bedrooms are located in
the entrance floor, permanent residential area is in the 2nd floor. This
section consists a bedroom in an enclosed garden wing. The main living room and
kitchen with dining room is glassed in both sides of the open section. The main
living room is followed by terraces. One is with the exposure on the city, the
second with private impact is on the garden side. Generosity is replaced by the
extent of terraces, due to the slope, lack of garden. In the part from the city
side are also two atriums, where ornamental planting will take place. Other
parts of the land in the steep will be largely covered by a maintenance-free,
climbing green vegetetation. In the basement floor is a garage for one
car,laundry room with boiler room. The basement floor is interiorsly connected
to the 1st floor as an alternative entrance to the house.
Construction:
Given the complexity of establishing in a steep slope, was
for the basement and 1st floor chosen solid concrete wall construction. This
construction is reinforced against the formation of cracks, so in the ground
part works the concrete as a
waterproofing and ucovered part as perspective. 2nd floor is built structures
in combination with glassed steel skeleton parts. Facade cladding is Siberian
larch boards, the same material is used on the terraces.
