Well known Czech
architect and designer Martin Sladký has recently added another successful
project to his portfolio. This time it is a highly sophisticated residential
house. Behind the simple shapes and details which are elegant yet inconspicuous
is hidden state of art technology and an exceptional degree of craftsmanship.
An architectural style is
reflected in both; the house’s exterior and interior. Its aim is to crate
clear, even purist, space definition with direct continuity to garden and view.
The main idea is achieved by the
means of full integration of almost all interior furnishings which is cleverly
concealed. This eliminates otherwise disturbing elements and contributes to
pure and a positive living experience and garden perception.
The distinctive feature of the
house is the furnishing, which is, with the exception of seating, all custom
made.
Essential to house’s atmosphere
is the ingenious lighting system of indirect illumination in combination with a
selection of unconventional materials used on walls and the façade.
Architect Martin Sladky responds
to the question how does the house correspond to the garden:
“This structure was created by
our team as a part of a developer project. In that location we implemented
around 20 residential houses and some other buildings, among them this villa.
Luckily in this case we were not restricted by any major house development
regulations. A small garden house
stood previously on this lot. We maintained the original greenery and restored
the beautiful stone fountain. The house is situated as close as possible to the
street in order to allocate most space to the garden. The elongated lay out
corresponds with narrow building site. The size of the house is based on a
building site of 150 m2.”
The structure is taking advantage
of passive solar technology. The facade with most glass (and a breathtaking
view of Prague)
is oriented to southeast. The windows are shaded by 1,5m ceiling overlap and equipped with double glass pane and Heat Mirror film. In
addition there are blinds, so the interior never overheats. The house also
features a floor heating system. The custom A Heat Recovery and Ventilation
system creates an ideal indoor climate with the help of build-in floor vents
providing the interior with clean, warm and humidified air.
“In order to avoid the
complicated insulation of overlapping ceiling panels and attic, we used a
construction system with inside heat insulation. This system is not very common
here, but in France,
for example, is widely used” adds the project author Martin Sladky.
The wish and aim was to create a
clean space with a seamless appearance and the emphasis on maximum use of
living space.
