FAMILY HOUSE WITH BREWERY

MY HOUSE IS SITUATED ON A LARGE PLOT IN A TRADITIONAL CZECH VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT. THE PLOT ITSELF IS DIVIDED BY A DRIVEWAY INTO UPPER AND LOWER PARTS. THE HOUSE IS PLACED ON THE LOWER PART TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE VIEW OFFERED. THE UPPER PART IS USED TO RUN A SMALL FAMILY BREWERY. THE LAYOUT OF THE HOUSE IS ADAPTED TO MAXIMIZE THE USE OF OUTDOOR SPACE. IN SPITE OF THE TRADITIONAL FORM OF A COUNTRY HOUSE, THE HOUSE IS A MODERN TIMBER-FRAMED HOUSE MADE OF CLT PANELS WITH AN OPEN SOUTHERN FAÇADE. THE DOMINANT ELEMENT OF MY DESIGN IS THE DIVISION OF THE HOUSE INTO TWO PARTS, WHICH ARE CONNECTED BY A GLASS TUNNEL ON THE FIRST FLOOR. THIS LAYOUT ALSO ALLOWS FOR TWO-GENERATION LIVING. THE BREWERY BUILDING WITH THE EXISTING BUILDINGS COMPLETES THE HISTORIC COURT.
