A Unique Design of Summerhouse House by Tham & Videgard Arkitekter
A very unique house design has been done by Tham & Videgard Arkitekter. It is a summerhouse, located in Stockholm archipelago. It is a light-weight house, with glass and wood materials are dominating.
The parallelogram shape makes this house unique. This shape is chosen, considering the narrow site condition, between two mountain rocks. The south side is facing the sun, while the west side is facing the sea.
With the small rooms located in the back, the rest of the house stands out as an open platform criss-crossed by panes of sliding glass. The zig-zag layout also offers several outside spaces sheltered from strong winds. The house is organised in layers, the big rooms expand with an open relationship to the wooden deck. A horizontal wooden trellis diffuses daylight and enhances the character of one continuous space, where the distinction of interior/exterior becomes subordinated.
The black color of exterior is chosen, relating to the verticals of tall grown pines. For the interior, the starting point has been the direct relationship to the dramatic archipelago landscape, with the objective to offer within a simple frame – a platform – several diverse readings of the relation between space and nature.
