Concept:
At the beginning of the design of a country house management company has provided a cottage settlement with the regulations prescribed stylistic concept of the village: the house must be performed in a pseudo-Mediterranean style, the color palette should meet the surrounding buildings, the parameters of high-rise buildings are understated to 8.5 m from the ground level instead of the 15 meters on the level of the ground to the highest point of the house. The main wish of the customer was to make enough modern house in minimalist style with large panoramic windows. As a result, the idea of the two fronts, the first fully facade faces the main road of the village, the second facade facing towards the courtyard and designed in modern style with large panoramic windows. By planning task was initially wish to place on the site of the canopy, the economic unit and bath. Canopy immediately decided to carry close to the fence by the entrance to the site, the economic bloc moved most to the neighbors, c bath had several accommodation options, but the main wishes was to eliminate any possibility of bath view from the neighbors. The result stopped on a variant of the house constructed on the basis of Cypriot Byzantine and ancient houses, namely, the house with a courtyard. Born on non-standard layout repeats irregularly shaped section and creating a semi-enclosed courtyard between the house and the bath and two outdoor courtyard to the main entrance and leisure guests and family members. The semi-enclosed courtyard decided to create a chamber space with a Japanese garden is shaded by parametric wall of wooden planks forming a diagonal checkerboard-pattern. The main facade of the house with columns and plinth with moldings, it was decided to dilute the bright central architectural element: a luminous evening stone panels. The house was bright, individually, with the facade solutions formed at the intersection of tradition and innovation.
