Family House Moravian Karst
The house consists of three basic volumes connected into a single whole. The dominant two-story block in the center of the composition is complemented by two single-story volumes—an eastern technical block and a western residential block. The main two-story mass aligns its eastern edge with the prolongation of the street line of the adjacent street. The southern edge of the house is parallel to the boundary of the forest.
The eastern single-story block is technical, dedicated to parking spaces and a garage, and includes a foyer, storage room, and wardrobe, partially overlapping with the guest apartment. The entrance area is sheltered from the weather by an overhanging roof. The multi-story block is dedicated to the main living rooms with a bathroom and also serves as the main communication hub of the house. The western block forms the main social part of the house, which contains a living room with a dining area. The roof overhang to the south provides effective shading and allows for outdoor use even in the rain. A terrace attached to the living area plays a significant role. This terrace allows for comfortable seating with views of the forest and countryside, while also being sheltered from the wind and prying eyes from the street. A sunken pool with a retractable floor is part of the terrace.
The house has a white plaster finish, with windows featuring dark gray aluminum frames and varying sill and lintel heights according to the room's purpose. This diversity creates a playful geometry on the facades. The orthogonal shapes of the blocks are enlivened by an oval projection onto the sun terrace and a spiral staircase connecting the terrace on the ground floor with the terrace on the upper floor.
The load-bearing structure is made of masonry with monolithic reinforced concrete ceilings. The extension above the staircase is constructed as a wooden structure. The roof is flat with a waterproof membrane. Part of the flat roof is used as a terrace with a wooden deck on plastic supports. Some areas of the roof are green. The roof drains are heated.
