FAMILY HOUSE
Ukrainian style house
TASK
- 4 badrooms for 3 generation of one family
- 150 square meters
- covered gazebo
- parking for 4-5 cars
- pool outside (for sauna in the future)
- basement
SOLUTION
- the hay on the walls has not only decorative function - it is applied as a finishing coat.
- hay walls will change color, darken over time, but the service life of this material is 100 years
- we learn the culture of peoples by what has been preserved from them, and in most cases it is architecture. The thatched roof is the very first attribute of the Ukrainian mud hut house. This means that this material is very connected with our Ukrainian culture. Reed walls are a tribute to culture. There are already more modern technologies for the roof and we should not go to such architectural extremes as making a thatched roof in the 21st century. Therefore, it makes sense to consider reeds as a facing material for walls.
- the second facade cladding material is plaster with a slight imitation of concrete
- total living area: 160 sq.m
- facades fit perfectly into the golden ratio. Both side and central, which can be seen from the last pictures in the gallery
