The house was built in Izbica near Warsaw. A beautiful plot on a hill, overlooking a river bend provides quite\u00a0the sight. Rounded ground floor resembles a rock, on\u00a0which the upper, night section rests. Protruding ledge created a shaded garden merging with the living\u00a0section. It is enclosed by massive ground floor forms on the one side and with glass partitions on the other. A\u00a0living-garden is thus created \u2013 a room on the verge of two worlds: house and nature. On warm days, after\u00a0removing the glass partitions, indoor space merges with the garden, thanks to the materials applied.<\/p>\n

Other\u00a0functions (kitchen, technical and recreational section) are housed in the massive forms lined with Siberian\u00a0wood. The dark wood blends in with\u00a0tree trunks. White form blends in with the sky. Moreover, bedroom glazing enclosed with stainless steel\u00a0reflects the sky.\u00a0The living-garden features a roofed terrace with external kitchen (the kitchen top is folded into the wall\u00a0closet). Thanks to this, the residents have the sense of living in open air. They hide in the cocoon of their\u00a0bedrooms for the night only.
\nLiving-Garden is a green, A-energy class building. Perfectly insulated \u2013 with thick walls, multilayer thermal\u00a0glass, additional insulation provided by shutters \u2013 wooden ones downstairs and steel ones upstairs. The\u00a0house does not require high energy for heating and remains cool in the summer. The ledge protects the\u00a0ground floor against overheating.\u00a0With its structure, Living-Garden House enforces an environmentally friendly lifestyle \u2013 opening up to the\u00a0garden enforces coexistence with nature, subjecting to its rhythm.<\/p>\n
