HEARTH HOUSE

Idea projektu

The name-Hearth House (fireplace, fireplace) is associated with the main part of any family home - the living room. * Hearth * is a source of heat and light, but in a figurative sense it is a place where you are always expected, where you are always welcome and where you want to return. My goal was to create this feeling of warmth, light and coziness so that it was felt by every inhabitant of the House.

Popis projektu

Based on the idea of the house and the location of the plot, I decided to use the L form as a basis. This shape of the house can capture as much sunlight as possible. Then, in the very center of the house – in its heart – a living room was created with large panoramic windows that intersect over two floors to spread the sun and heat throughout the House. So the living room, like the heart of the house, like The Hearth House, gives light and warmth to the whole house. The house is vertically divided into two parts – Day and night. The daily portion is located at 1. NP and is oriented to the south-western and south-eastern sides. Following the suspended staircase from the living room, we get to the night part of the House. The night part is oriented mostly to the south-west side.
