LIGHT AND SHADOW
The way in which the facade openings have been placed is the result of another basic design idea. The interior sequence of rooms is reflected by the window openings because each room has exactly one window in the wall or ceiling area. The resulting facade structure is underpinned by the use of two copper-framed window formats of the VELUX roof window range, which are opened by means of hinged wings. The striking facade geometry is created by the individual windows, placed alone or next to each other.

In constructional terms, the house is a wooden-frame structure made of prefabricated elements. It was therefore possible to deliver the windows already fitted. During the times of day when the sun is at its highest, the thick forest provides natural shade for the building so that additional protection against the sun did not have to be provided.
