BROWN
ARCHITECTS

For the 26 mx 100 m property, we designed three buildings as a harmonious ensemble: residential building, garage building and fitness center. The connecting element is a 25 m long outdoor pool for year-round training. The minimalist design with floor-to-ceiling panoramic glazing is clear and simple. The cubes, clad with soft wooden slats, stand on a hard exposed concrete slab. Likewise, solid wall elements alternately flank the buildings along the property and act as privacy screens.

 

Depending on the setting, the wooden slats provide a view of the interior and from there of the outside. This grid creates a timelessly elegant overall picture. The alternation of transparency and veiling results in effective lighting conditions. The atmosphere changes depending on the time of day and season. Behind these upstream structures are entrances, windows, gates or terraces and balconies.

 

The furnishings in all buildings reflect the reduced but exquisite taste of the client. Furniture from selected brands are colour-coordinated and create a classy, calm interior. Sophisticated lighting concepts stage everything effectively. Rooms like the open living-dining area are spacious, everything is flooded with light. From every position, the view wanders undisturbed towards the sky and garden. There the bathing and fitness house forms the end of the 25m long outdoor pool. The client uses this resting place to relax, guests are very welcome: we have planned two separate rooms for this purpose.
