House in Rasnov

  • Year : 2022

Residence for a family of 4 in the township of Rasnov, near Brasov city, high up in the Carpathian mountains. The plot is located in a wide valley and has a relatively flat surface, slowly descending towards a creek.

The idea was to mimic the local traditional dwellings at a volumetric level, therefore we split up the house in several smaller volumes, detaching the bedrooms and creating a very airy hallway totally open towards the plot. The house, therefore, presents itself as a collection of house, annexes and haystacks, even though it’s only one unit.

Each roof ends with a skylight for better lighting and atmosphere.
