This Summer House in Nyrup project takes its point of departure in the topography and shape of the place/ plot. The cottage consists of three container units/ boxes which each has its own determined ”view” over the plot: the unit at left looks out at the forest, the box on the right hand is facing the adjacent lake and the box at the rear is facing the adjacent road which leads to the plot.

The box at left contain childrens room and master bedroom. The box at the rear contains entrance, bathroom and kitchen. At right the box facing the small lake contains dining room/ zone and livin groom with a small fireplace. From this room you have access to a huge terrace.

Regarding the interior materials both floor, walls and roof will be cladded in birch veneer plates covered in matt lacquer.

All three boxes are raised from the ground and in accordance with the topography. The bearings are made of thin, black painted steel pipes. All exterior walls of the summer house are cladded with untreaten larch sticks which, over time, will get an almost silver metal like look. All window frames are black painted wood. The roof is made of tarred roofing felt and on top there is a sedum roof (grass roof) with gras, herbs and vegetation etc. typical for this particular area.
